Pressure forced Johnson to step down: DA
The Democratic Alliance (DA) says the resignation of the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (Idac) Head, Adv Andrea Johnson, could be attributed to public pressure.
I think Ms Johnson has been feeling a huge amount of pressure in the last couple of months, more particularly since her appearance at the Ad Hoc Committee and the scrutiny that has now been directed to Idac and the case selection, and I think the fact that she was rushed to hospital the day that she was required to testify, sort of demonstrates that the pressure is just too much.
There’s no way that she could have continued as the head of the leading anti-corruption agency in the country, given all of the allegations that have been levelled against her, and she has to face the consequences for all that conduct, and due process must be followed.
