The tribunal on Thursday zoomed in on the nature of the relationship that Mbenenge shares with all the secretaries in the division, questioning the interactions the top judge would have with junior staff.

“It would also depend, but it would be about work. Sometimes it’s about what I’ve achieved. As a father figure, he will communicate and congratulate me on anything that I’ve achieved, so it always depends on what it is.”
