Summary
The EFF’s no-confidence motion against Speaker Thoko Didiza has cleared a major hurdle—but with strings attached. Deputy Speaker approves the core argument that Didiza failed to act independently over President Ramaphosa’s interdict, but demands procedural tweaks to keep it legally sound. Malema’s motion accuses Didiza of siding with the President, while her office says she followed court orders. Critics like BOSA reject the motion as too political, insisting Speakers must step away from party roles to remain impartial. Meanwhile, the MK Party demands Didiza hand over legal opinions tied to impeachment, arguing transparency is key. The Speaker’s fate now hinges on the EFF’s edits and mounting scrutiny.
