Johannesburg – Former President Jacob Zuma plans to bring into question the constitutionality of the establishment of the State Capture Commission of Inquiry.
Zuma has filed a 100 pages long affidavit in his bid to force the Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo to recuse himself as chairperson of the inquiry.
The former president says while this is not the basis for which he seeks the recusal, it does, however, give proper context to his reservations about the constitutionality, the legality and appropriateness of having Zondo preside over the commission.
Zuma’s affidavit also goes into what he believes is a compromising personal history between himself and Zondo.
The application will be heard by the State Capture Inquiry on Monday.
