During a media briefing on the readiness for the presidential inauguration in Tshwane on Thursday, Minister in the Presidency Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma said the budget cut had to do with the current economic climate in South Africa.
While not revealing the exact allocated budget, Dlamini-Zuma said that they wouldn't be spending more than R120m, and that the 2014 inauguration of Zuma had cost around R240m. Dlamini-Zuma added that the change of venue would also allow for a more inclusive programme, where everyone could witness the ceremony at the same time.The Inter-Ministerial Committee on the presidential inauguration also announced that only SADC heads of state, representatives from different regional economic blocs and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi - who is also the chairperson of the African Union - had been invited to the ceremony.
AlexMitchley It shouldn't be costing anything in the first place, he should just go to CJ Mogoeng's office and get it done there.
AlexMitchley So? The way yawl hate PresJGZuma you have to include him in everything. Just leave the man in peace and focus on Cereal

AlexMitchley And fuel going up next month...
AlexMitchley As long as it cost money, it's rediculous
AlexMitchley Swaboha mara 🤦🏽♂️
AlexMitchley Really in our current state, you couldn't use common sense and say hang on we don't have money for this. No, this had to happen, nothing more than 'putting your pet on show' - a term used when playing board games and you have nothing better to do.
AlexMitchley Makes no difference if we do not know from what amount this is, is it from one billion or what?
AlexMitchley And the same thugs are still MP’s 😡
AlexMitchley He's been messing up ever since he took over from Zuma so it's understandable
AlexMitchley R100m for what seriously they they say SA is broke my ass. Create jobs n stop wasting money that R100m can help a lot of students n unemployed grads.

Cyril Ramaphosa's government will be accountable - Nkosazana Dlamini-ZumaSenior ANC leader Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma said on Thursday South Africans can expect a government that is accountable and which will prioritise service delivery. Dlamini-Zuma was visiting the IEC centre in KwaZulu-Natal and during a walkabout, said she was satisfied with the party's performance at the polls at the time. Salute to that let it be something written in black n white Given the track record, it seems unlikely. Why will the anc change the benefits of the ANCgravyTrain they have been enjoying over the past 25 years? Is she throwing shade at bhuti bae ?
