How awks would it be to have your job interview broadcasted live on national television? And then, have your files pulled out of the archives even Black Twitter hasn’t found yet. And then getting grilled for skeletons you forgot were hidden in the closet?
The interviews of candidates hoping to take over from Public Protector Thuli Madonsela are under way in the National Assembly with only half of the candidates interviewed in the past nine hours. It’s going to be a long day in the office for some of the honourable members.  Eight more candidates are to be interviewed within the remaining five hours, as the interviews are set to end at 11pm.
We’re not seeing Baleka Mbete-induced levels of chaos but it’s been lit.
Smallernyana skeletons are everywhere!
Everywhere!

And then she shaded current Public Protector Thuli Madonsela.
Mamiki Goodman [about Madonsela]:
“To tell you the truth, she is somebody I wouldn’t want to work with, or even be friends with”.

Advocate Chris Mokotidwa disclosed his age and compared running the Public Protector office with the Soweto Marathon. Also, shouldn’t you be retired at 77?
“My age 77, i don’t hide. I’m fit. I’m a body builder! I walk the Soweto Marathon. If I can do that, then this is nothing.” Chris Mokoditwa
