DA welcomes inquiry into DRC mission as minister Motshekga misses defence meeting

# The DA has welcomed news that a board of inquiry could soon investigate the South African National Defence Force’s troubled mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This was revealed in Parliament by Defence deputy minister Bantu Holomisa, while minister Angie Motshekga missed the meeting to attend a military event in Russia. The DA’s Chris Hattingh condemned Motshekga for dodging accountability, demanding answers regarding the withdrawal of soldiers from the DRC.
