Kubayi defends Raulinga's IDAC ombud appointment amid MK Party bias claims
EWN reported on 8 October that Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi defended Raulinga's appointment as ombud for the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (IDAC) after MK Party claims of bias in Parliament's Justice Committee. She also rebuked former IDAC head Andrea Johnson over disclosing his appointment early. DailyDrop did not find a second report.
The IDAC investigates high-profile corruption, so who oversees it matters.
Little direct effect, but it shows pressure on anti-corruption bodies before the elections.
Single source. Watch whether the MK Party takes the matter to court.
