South African Public Protector Thuli Madonsela is due in Zimbabwe on June 27 for a public lecture on her controversial report on the alleged abuse of public funds by President Jacob Zuma when he erected a security upgrade at his rural home in Nkandla.
The outspoken Madonsela is expected to present the findings of her Nkandla report with Zimbabwean business persons and the civil society during a public lecture organised by Alpha Media Holdings (AMH), owners of popular newspaper titles such as NewsDay, Zimbabwe Independent, The Standard and South Africa's Mail & Guardian.
AMH said Madonsela will share her findings with Zimbabweans during the popular monthly AMH Conversations lecture set for Harare next week Friday.
Madonsela found in March that Zuma got "undue benefit" from the upgrade of his Nkandla home and gave the president 14 days to respond before parliament but the president only gave a brief response and requested that he sees the Special Investigating Unit's report first before his final response.
The public protector recommended that Zuma should repay the state for some of the improvements.
The Nkandla project, which was bankrolled by the state, has been valued at estimated R246-million.
