JOHN DLUDLU | What comes after Madlanga? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In January the Madlanga commission of inquiry will file its final report with detailed recommendations. The findings will expose the extent of the rot in the criminal justice system and imagine a new architecture for a system that might prevent the country from descending into a mafia state. A week ago President Cyril Ramaphosa extended the work of the commission, headed by former deputy chief justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, until January. The commission was appointed by Ramaphosa after a tell-all p
JOHN DLUDLU | Can smaller parties help fix Johannesburg? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
To say South Africa’s major political parties have been a disappointment to voters would be an understatement. They have betrayed voters’ trust, and it’s doubtful that they can regain their confidence with what they’ve promised voters in the upcoming local government elections. This is nowhere clearer than in Johannesburg. Public services and infrastructure are collapsing rapidly.

A few years ago people would have put money on a return to politics, especially as his country is trapped in a 1% growth trajectory and grand-scale corruption amid an alarming rate of youth unemployment. These da
JOHN DLUDLU | Idac’s fall shows how to kill off a good idea (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s hard to imagine that the good idea of setting up the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (Idac) can survive the deluge of allegations against it. Over the past month a solid case has been built for why this was a good idea turned bad. The Madlanga commission of inquiry has laid bare evidence of how the institution, which was supposed to follow up on so-called state capture cases, veered off its core mandate. By way of background, the body, housed in the National Prosecuting Authori
