Selfe will now head the DA's governance unit, tasked with ensuring that they deliver to citizens.
DA's shadow Minister of Correctional Services, James Selfe, is seen in the Pretoria High Court during the launch of an application by the DA to force President Jacob Zuma to establish a Judicial Commission of Inquiry into allegations of state capture, 12 September 2017, Pretoria.
”During this time his contribution to both the growth of the DA and our country’s democracy has been immense,” DA leader Mmusi Maimane said at a media briefing in Johannesburg following the DA federal council’s first meeting after the May 8 general elections. Selfe would now head the DA’s governance unit, tasked with supporting DA governments to ensure that they delivered better to citizens. This unit would require strong leadership to ensure accelerated delivery towards the next elections.
”James has both the skill, experience and institutional knowledge to spearhead this new unit, and I welcome this decision. ”James’s career in the DA, to date, spans over four decades – almost half of which he has served as the party’s federal [executive] chairperson. He will now relinquish that particular role, but his work in service of his country through the DA continues. Our party, and indeed our country, owe him a debt of gratitude,” Maimane said.
