READER LETTER | Mpofu benefits from Zuma’s weak court cases

While Zuma is doing everything in his power not to have his day in court, Dali Mpofu is smiling all the way to the bank!

I was one of those people who were overjoyed when former president Jacob Zuma’s deliberate legal diversionary tactics of trying to bring a private prosecution against state prosecutor Billy Downer, journalist Karyn Maughan and recently President Cyril Ramaphosa were dismissed with costs!

The truth of the matter is that Zuma is yet again wasting the time of our court system with his delaying tactics. While Zuma is doing everything in his power not to have his day in court, Dali Mpofu is smiling all the way to the bank!

I have never seen an “innocent” person fighting so viciously against a just process! South Africans are sick and tired of guys like Zuma with deep pockets trying to intimidate or scare off communities or journalists from pursuing public interest stories and actions.
