The NCOP secretly approved this increase, raising his annual pay to R4.4 million, surpassing the President’s salary.

While political parties criticise the move, Parliament justifies it, citing a comprehensive evaluation process conducted by a remuneration consultancy firm to align with industry standards.

The Democratic Alliance calls for an inquiry, alleging a lack of transparency and misleading information provided by Speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula.
