During the debate, opposition parties urged President Cyril Ramaphosa not to appoint a new electricity minister, saying it would only add to an already 'bloated mega presidency'.
CAPE TOWN - President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to take to the podium on Thursday afternoon to reply to a rather heated two-day debate on his state of the nation address.
"Don't have a nanny Cabinet. If they are not working, fire them. What has happened is that you have got a bloated mega presidency now," said Hlengwa.Economic Freedom Fighters deputy president Floyd Shivambu said the president should be honest and admit to South Africans that renewables were not the answer.
"You have brought this country to its knees. You have nailed the coffin, created a nation in disaster," she said.
