Unic Press UK: The South African president Jacob Zuma has reshuffled his cabinet, naming ten new ministers and ten deputy ministers.
Excerpts from the president’s office on the new appointees reads:
“I have decided to make changes to the National Executive in order to improve efficiency and effectiveness.
“The changes bring some younger MPs and women into the National Executive in order to benefit from their energy, experience and expertise.
“I have directed the new Ministers and Deputy Ministers to work tirelessly with their colleagues to bring about radical socio-economic transformation and to ensure that the promise of a better life for the poor and the working class becomes a reality.
I wish to extend his gratitude to the outgoing Ministers and Deputy Ministers for their service to the country. I also wish the new Ministers and Deputy Ministers the best in their new responsibilities.”
