@Shipululo The Doctrine of Legality exists precisely to ensure that power is exercised within the law, not above it. A democracy that cannot answer procedural questions without drama should interrogate why the procedure feels threatening. Abracadabra is not governance.


Honouried to meet high-ranking delegation of @parliament_nam committee on int'l relations led by H'ble MP @Utaara1 Mootu for very good & open exchange. Agreed to deepen 🇩🇪🇳🇦 special relationship. H'ble MPs @mvenaani, @Shipulolo, Royal /UI /O/OO, Rodrick Likando, @FennyTutjavi

We will uphold the rule of law as Phala Phala moves to impeachment process! This is a serious moment for Parliament, for the Presidency, and for South Africa’s constitutional democracy. The impeachment committee must now do its work properly, rationally, fairly and constitutionally. The President must have the opportunity to account fully. This judgment also draws a clear line between the DA and the ANC. For too long, the ANC has presided over a political culture in which accountability is delayed, diluted or avoided when it becomes inconvenient. The DA stands for a different kind of politics in which the Constitution comes before party loyalty, and no leader is shielded from answering to the people.


There is imaginary thinking that Presidents or PM of nations explain their decisions they don't it's Prerogative to fire and hire. By asking them to is task them to declassify sensitive info which they used to arrive at decisions. Nowhere is it done as proposed just populism.

If you FAILED and did not hold PREVIOUS Presidents and Governments ACCOUNTABLE in the Past when you had a chance to do that, it has NOTHING to do with US. We were in Primary/High School leading our peers . We are here NOW and we take our work seriously. ACCEPT this reality or step aside because we will not stop. History is a place of LEARNING and REFLECTION but NOT a place of RESIDENCE.


@Shipululo The boring part is that as long as there was a majority of members, their decisions are valid even if there is a vacancy. The exciting part is due process is never boring. The funny part is the doctrines of abracadabra. All three can be true at the same time.

@Shipululo I am not a legal expert, but I know something about hermeneutics. Don't you think you're making an egg-or-chicken argument?

“The doctrines of abracadabra….” I stay off social media so I don’t laugh at serious things.
