DA calls for immediate release of report on “Military Uber”
The DA is calling for the immediate release of the report from Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula over the controversial “Military Uber.”
The Democratic Alliance (DA) released a statement on Monday, 14 September 2020, calling on President Cyril Ramaphosa to release the report by Minister of Defence and Military Veterans, Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula on the matter of the state jet being used by the ANC delegation to go to Zimbabwe on a “fact finding mission.” On Friday, 11 September 2020, Ramaphosa released a statement advising that Minister Mapisa-Nqakula had 48 hours to deliver a report setting out the circumstances around the flight and the passenger list.
The leading opposition party is currently spearheading the call for the release of the report to the public. “We reject any attempt to make citizens forget about this abuse of state resources,” the DA stated.
This is after the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) suggested that the matter should not be exaggerated, especially if the ruling party pays back the costs of using the aircraft.
