POLOKWANE – President Jacob Zuma has reshuffled his cabinet, again, this time, firing Blade Ndzimande as the Minister of Higher Education.
Ndzimande has been replaced by Professor Hlengiwe Mkhize.
South Africa’s now ex Minister of State Security, David Mahlobo is the new Minister of Energy.
He replaces Mmamoloko Kubayi.
The reshuffle has caused waves on social media with many expressing their views and opinions.
Ministers who have served a mere 6 months moved to new positions. No strategy in this #CabinetReshuffle. Key is gas deal at energy.
