On Wednesday, members of the judiciary will hold a special sitting in the Constitutional Court in Johannesburg in honour of the outgoing Chief Justice Raymond Zondo. This follows a function last night to celebrate Zondo’s 27-year career in the judiciary.
The head of the judiciary is set to retire at the end of this month. As law experts reflected on Zondo’s career, his time as the Chairperson of the State Capture Commission was highlighted as the hallmark of his career.
Addressing guests, Zondo described the four years of the commission as challenging. But he emphasised the significance of the role of the public in ensuring that those responsible for State Capture were held accountable.
“Of course, greater challenges lay ahead of me when I was chairperson of the commission. I will be eternally grateful for the support … the support we received from the general public of South Africa through very difficult times.
“That support kept us going even when it was very dark. Because wherever I [went] I always met people who said thank you for the job you are doing for the country. That for me was such a motivation that we could not let the people of South Africa down,” added Zondo.
