Your editorial comment refers (“Checking on the president”, November 4).

Such a committee is certainly not in the interests of its target, the president himself, who is a master of gaslighting and evasion.

A specific grouping adjudicating the president’s activities, or none such activities (as in the case of delaying important decisions, such as the future of justice minister Thembi Simelane) would be most useful.

President Cyril Ramaphosa needs the checks and balances of a very specific oversight committee.
