22 February, 2022 is written as 22/02/2022 numerically and is, therefore, a palindrome as it can be read the same way forwards and backwards. It is an ambigram as well because it is the same upside down in digital numerical format.

Thuli Madonsela brings up technical rules about JSC recommendations

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that the former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela has come under fire on social media for bringing up technical rules about the appointment of the next Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court.

Taking to Twitter, Madonsela reflected on the Judicial Service Commission's (JSC) announcement that the Supreme Court of Appeal President Judge Mandisa Maya is the candidate they have chosen to recommend to President Cyril Ramaphosa for the position.

Madonsela stated that while the JSC may have recommended Maya the Constitution states the President can only appoint a Chief Justice after consulting the JSC and political organisations that are part of the National Assembly.
