JSC recommends 5 candidates as Constitutional Court judges | J_chabalala
The Judicial Service Commission has recommended five candidates to President Cyril Ramaphosa for vacancies on the Constitutional Court Bench.The five candidates are Judge Annali Basson, Western Cape Deputy Judge President Patricia Goliath, former South African Human Rights Commission head Jody Kollapen, Judge Stevan Majiedt and Judge Zukisa Tshiqi.
"I believe that I have many years of practical experience, spanning back to the late 80s. I believe that my academic background can assist me in dealing with very complex matters, because one has to remember that, when you deal with constitutional matter, sometimes it's not per se a constitutional matter. You have to be au fait with all the branches of the law."
Goliath also convicted artist Zwelethu Mthethwa of killing sex worker Nokuphila Kumalo. Similar to Basson, Goliath emphasised her cumulative experience, as well as the work she had done to empower women.
