Now the dust has settled on the appointments and redeployments, will anything really change after president Cyril Ramaphosa's latest cabinet reshuffle?Ramaphosa said the reshuffle would help government juggle apeace and stability in the wake of recent violent unrest, providing relief to the vulnerable and rebuilding the economy.
There were vacancies in the cabinet after minister Jackson Mthembu's death earlier this year, Zweli Mkhize's resignation and Tito Mboweni's request to step down. Ramaphosa appointed new ministers of health, finance, defence and military veterans, the presidency, communications and digital technologies, and human settlements, among others.Fifty-three percent said it was just a case of “different faces but same old issues”.What do you think of Ramaphosa's cabinet reshuffle?“It's so disappointing. 'Reshuffle' should not be applied in ANC since nothing changes.
“We can reshuffle, change the president, change political party; we'll never see the development. The problem is African leadership that has no foundation. When they practise African spirituality as their foundation, then we can have a new SA.”The "New" you are talking about, is misleading. Cyril just switched around deadwood that's been around for ages.
