Although there is no official word from the Union Buildings on when Ramaphosa will announce the changes to his executive, furious horse trading and discussions are taking place inside Luthuli House and the broader governing alliance on who should be sent to Cabinet.
Key among those seem to be the deployment of Senzo Mchunu to state security, a department that will return to its former identity as the department of intelligence as recommended by the inquiry into intelligence services led by Sydney Mufamadi. Mchunu is a Ramaphosa ally and was the president's choice to become the ANC’s secretary-general at the party's Nasrec conference in 2017.
And Gauteng Finance MEC Barbara Creecy is again being touted as a possible replacement for Finance Minister Tito Mboweni, who has been cagey about his desire to return to National Treasury. MPs will be sworn in during a special session of the National Assembly next week, when Ramaphosa will also be elected head of state. His inauguration takes place three days later. His current term as president will not count as a full term of office and he remains eligible to serve two terms, as per the Constitution.
SACP spokesperson Alex Mashilo confirmed to News24 the organisation is preparing a formal presentation to the ANC ahead of the Cabinet announcement. After coming into office in 2018 he promised to audit the size and effectiveness of the executive, appointing a task team to advise him on a future reconfiguration.
Now listen to the people and reduce the crap that has been taking office and offending the people of this nation for far too long.
Looking for this one in anticipaaation !!!
Believe it only when happens
That's a good first step. But again, there should be no more than 15-16 ministries. And please from the money not going to ministers, build new, functional, informative websites! Most remain the same since the early 2000s...
Is his ear itchy?
VelaMjadu Good
If this happens I will vote for ANC the next time
Very good departure point
I doubt if this will happen😏😏
Please Mr President start with those lala people in parliament. Hey they sleep those members.
CyrilRamaphosa great stuff, this will go a long way to resolve the inefficiencies in the organization.
Good, now act on it
Hae 🚶🏼♂️🚶🏼♂️🚶🏼♂️
I will believe as soon as its done.for now its rumours i dont trust this gorvenment
Problem is they all know each others corrupt secrets and rampahoesa is also scared it might backfire thts y he cant make decisions he is just in it for money and power like all of them are
that's the smartest thing ever, look at the 1st world countries, they have a small cabinets... i just saw Minister of finance passing by with 7 BMW in a convoy, andiyazi latata uleqa phi...
cadre employment opportunity no matter how useless
And people who didn't even campaign for MYANC during elections will be made senior cabinet ministers; the likes of pravingordhan; Maria Ramos; Rob Davies; Ibrahim Patel; Barbara Hogan; and Derek Hanekom. The above ALWAYS get free lunch.
Reduction of 24 salaries, houses and +- 48 cars will lead to huge savings. Please do that President.
Won’t happen. Cyril would not have a second term for sure
Why the hell have deputy ministers. They have no power at all and just cost us. Jobs for pals and nice work if you get it.
This will never happen as long as the ANC still rewards the whole lot 'freedom fighters'. The only way to reward them is to give them ministerial positions.
I'll believe it when I see it. Unamanga lobaba lona
MYANC mayor in court for corruption & hopefully more arrests in the highest echelons. If true, a substantially reduced cabinet. CyrilRamaphosa seem to be a man of his word tito_mboweni JacksonMthembu_ Derek_Hanekom
