'Zuma ministers' set to chair various key parliamentary committees

This follows an apparent compromise between an ANC faction supporting Zuma and those supporting President Cyril Ramaphosa, following aover several weeks by the two groups on whom to deploy to parliamentary committees that scrutinise government activities, policies and spending priorities.

The matter came to a head last week, when Ramaphosa ordered that an ANC parliamentary caucus meeting was to be cancelled after he was alerted that secretary-general Ace Magashule had planned to announce names that had not been approved by other national leadership structures. Following a series of follow-up meetings, including with ANC alliance partners on Monday, Magashule on Wednesday announced a list that saw members of his faction emerging as chairpersons of parliamentary oversight committees after they vowed to"capture parliament" now that they were no longer cabinet ministers.
