The decision to keep President Cyril Ramaphosa’s former spokesperson Khusela Diko in public service has sparked debate.

Gungubele said Diko, who is on maternity leave, will return to a different position, and Tyrone Seale will continue as Ramaphosa’s acting spokesperson.went against Ramaphosa's promise to deal with alleged corruption, while others welcomed the move.
