The KZN premier says he is confident in the capabilities of his cabinet.

KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala on Tuesday defended his appointment of some of the provincial members of the executive council , in particular, those who opposition parties in the province had taken issue with due to their inexperience.

Zikalala further said Mshengu understood the “priorities” of the African National Congress , saying he believed the newly appointed MEC for education would do well in the portfolio and in “any other deployment”. Zikalala said it was a perception held by some that a MEC for health should have experience as a health professional.

“The maintenance is declining, the administration, and there is a lack of proactiveness, so those are things that we must address, and ensure that the management is tightened while doctors work and provide medical support while nurses work to provide the nursing support, which is not the real … task of the MEC,” Zikalala said.
