Paul Nyathi|THE Kgalema Motlanthe Commission of Inquiry report will be made public since the interviews were held in public, ZANU PF leader Emmerson Mnangagwa has said.
Mnangagwa is quoted as having said this while addressing Zimbabwe’s Ambassadors and Charge d’Affaires who were in the country for a week long workshop recently.
According to a statement by the Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services, “The Motlanthe Commission Report will be published in full. This was made clear by His Excellency when he met Zimbabwe’s Ambassadors abroad. He said the hearings were done in public so the report will be shared with the public. He has so far received the summary and not the whole Report.”
Presidential spokesperson George Charamba last week caused a major furore in the country when he said President Mnangagwa in his capacity as the Head of State and Government is the sole recipient of the report and may decide not to share it with the public.
“There is nothing at law that compels the President to release the report to the public or not to release it to the public,” said Mr Charamba.
“The discretion is his. Where he has a bit of a limit is in respect of how the Commission conducts its hearings in terms of the law.
