Ramaphosa is not in control of Cabinet: opposition parties CabinetReshuffle
UDM leader Bantu Holomisa and Freedom Front Plus leader Pieter Groenewald share the same sentiment that President Cyril Ramaphosa was not in control of his Cabinet.
Holomisa said it was clear that Ramaphosa was unable to select “good” candidates for the ministry positions, while Groenewald said the Zuma faction still existed and was evidently in control. The president on Thursday announced changes to his National Executive which include embattled former health minister Zweli Mkhize stepping down from his position following the findings by the Special Investigating Unit into the Digital Vibes Scandal. Dr Joe Phaahla has been named the new Minister of Health.
Tito Mboweni asked to be excused from his position as finance minister. The new Minister of Finance is Enoch Godongwana. Meanwhile, National Assembly Speaker Thandi Modise has been named as the new Minister of Defence and Military Veterans.
