2018-09-20 |
[All Africa] The Kgalema Motlanthe led Commission of Inquiry into army killings on civilians during post-electoral protests last month finally gets down to work with swearing in by President Emmerson Mnangagwa set for State House this Wednesday. This was announced by Mnangagwa while officially opening the First Session of the Ninth Parliament Tuesday. "The isolated, regrettable and unacceptable incident of violence which occurred on 1 August 2018 should not deter us from the bold course of peace we have begun," Mnangagwa said. "I have announced a seven member Commission of Inquiry consisting of eminent persons whom I will be swearing in tomorrow, Wednesday 19 September, 2018. "I am confident that their ultimate report and recommendations will help put closure and finality to the matter." The probe team comprises former South African President Motlanthe, top UK attorney Rodney Dixon, former Commonwealth secretary general and Nigerian national Emeka Anyaoku and former Tanzania Defence Forces Chief General Davis Mwamunyange. |
