Thuli Madonsela, the former public protector for South-Africa, is calling on President Jacob Zuma to withdraw his opposition to the "State of Capture" report.

The former public protector says she's noted the recent Cabinet reshuffle, that saw the removal of the finance minister, Pravin Gordhan, and his deputy.

She believes this was inevitable, in light of the role played by former deputy finance minister, Mcebisi Jonas, of the link between Zuma and the Gupta brothers as mentioned in the report.

Former state officials Vytjie Mentor and Themba Maseko made similar allegations of being offered government posts by the Gupta family.

This is another indication that the state of the nation has escalated into a new period of uncertainty following the alleged take-over of the state.

She is now calling on the president to immediately appoint the commission of inquiry, prescribed in the "State of Capture" report. This joining the call from opposition for the removal of the President.
