Hon Speaker and hon President...
IsiXhosa:
... iphi le mali Mhlekazi, kutheni ungakhe usinike nathi apha ecaleni mfondini? [Kwahlekwa.]
English:
The nation and the world have witnessed the ugly public spat between the President and the Public Protector. Not only is this situation embarrassing for South Africa, but it also does not augur well for the President's new dawn, for your role as custodian of the Constitution and investor sentiments. This Parliament has the necessary powers and authority to look into the Public Protector's investigation and should hear the matter and deliberate the Public Protector's remedial action. If you agree, would you be willing to subject yourself to such a process and withdraw the matter from the courts for now in the interest of transparency, please?
