MPs have weighed in on President Cyril Ramaphosa being summoned to appear before parliament's section 194 committee inquiry into public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s fitness to hold office.

Listen:

Mkhwebane’s legal team, led by advocate Dali Mpofu, asked the committee to summon Ramaphosa, saying a refusal to do so would be “blatantly unfair”.

Mkhwebane and her team were not present in the hearing on Tuesday.
