DA to ask Mandonsela to investigate R2 billion VIP jet

The DA will request that Public Protector Thuli Madonsela investigate the acquisition of a new business jet for President Jacob Zuma.

They are concerned about the amount of money being spent by the defence department while so many South Africans are homeless.

The DA’s Shadow Minister of Defence and Military Veterans David Maynier said they can provide nearly 24 000 houses for families who do not have shelter, with the R2 billion being blown on a new business jet.

Maynier said there is something very fishy about the deal.

This is why they will ask Madonsela to investigate.
