Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane has been summoned to Parliament to explain her statements about her report on the Estina Dairy farm in Vrede in the Free State.

Mkhwebane has said she’s not completely happy with her report, because she could not investigate  important aspects due to budgetary constraints.

She  said that she failed to investigate a number of issues, including how money allocated to the Estina project was spent.

Mkhwebane ris scheduled to appear before the Justice and Correctional Services committee on Wednesday.

Committee chairperson, Dr Mathole Motshekga says they are extremely concerned about her comments, and they want to know what message she is trying to convey. Motshekga says they’re also concerned about allegations of her office suppressing some evidence. He says these allegations tarnishes the good image of the Office of the Public Protector.
