The EFF has lashed out at Acting Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, calling him an attention-seeker with little to no understanding of the country’s political game.
In a statement, the party condemns his press conference on Wednesday, where he responded to Tourism Minister Lindiwe Sisulu’s opinion piece.
The minister had criticised the judiciary and constitution, questioning the rule of law in SA and the role of Black judges.
The EFF says Zondo should not involve himself in a political debate, nor bring in the judiciary as a participant in an obvious election battle within the ANC.
The ruling party will hold its election congress at the end of this year.
However, Zondo maintains that he is disappointed in Sisulu, adding that such unsubstantiated comments are not fitting for a senior official of the ANC.
