Parliament want Malusi Gigaba to explain himself

Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba’s been summoned to appear before Parliament.

The under-fire minister must explain the decision to grant the Oppenheimers permission to operate a private terminal at OR Tambo International Airport.

The president’s been given 20 days to act against Gigaba for lying in court when he claimed he hadn’t given permission for the terminal.

Gigaba suffered another blow when the Constitutional Court confirmed a High Court ruling that he lied under oath.
