ANC Secretary General Ace Magashule.
The ANC Secretary General’s lawyer Ace Magashule has informed public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane that she will legally challenge her “irrational” findings that he will be responsible for the Vrede dairy farm scam, as Mkhwebane’s detractors accuse her of Being too soft on the former Free State Prime Minister.
In a letter seen by News24, Magashule’s attorney, Victor Nkhwashu, informed Mkhwebane on Tuesday that his firm had been “instructed to initiate legal proceedings regarding the adverse remarks made against our client” in its Vrede report, despite that she had not ordered that corrective action be taken against him.
That may be due to the political impact the report may have on Magashule, whose powerful position within the ANC had been threatened by the recent corruption case brought against him in connection with the so-called “asbestos heist” of the Free State.
