South Africas President made an about-turn Nkandla report: lawyer

Date: Feb 9, 2016

South Africa's President, Jacob Zuma, has made an about-turn on the Public Protector's Nkandla report. During argument in the Constitutional Court, the President's lawyer Jeremy Gauntlett conceded that the report was binding.

The President has long maintained that the report offered mere recommendations. Gauntlett also conceded that the Police Minister was wrong to compile a report, essentially reviewing the Public Protector's findings and exonerating the President.
