Malema accuses Didiza of failing to act impartially

Malema tabled the motion of no confidence debate against Didiza in the National Assembly.

Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has accused National Assembly Speaker Thoko Didiza of failing to act impartially during the impeachment proceedings against President Cyril Ramaphosa. Malema tabled a motion of no confidence against Didiza, arguing that she favored her own party's interests over the impartiality required of a presiding officer.

The EFF claims Didiza did not challenge the interdict preventing the Impeachment Committee from proceeding, thus violating her constitutional responsibilities. Malema called for all political parties to support removing Didiza from her position, stating that she is unfit to preside over a legislature that upholds the rule of law and ensures no one is above it.
