South Africa's Deputy Public Protector appointment process halted due to EFF member Mkhwebane's conflict of interest.

The appointment process for South Africa's Deputy Public Protector has been halted due to a conflict of interest issue involving Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) member Busisiwe Mkhwebane. The portfolio committee on justice and correctional services decided to restart the process after Mkhwebane failed to declare her relationship with two of the candidates. Mkhwebane dismissed the report as baseless and lacking facts and substance.
