Calls to put Eskom at minerals and energy is 'an attack on Ramaphosa' via SABCNewsOnline

This follows calls by the Economic Freedom Fighters , and others, for Ramaphosa to fire Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan.

There are also reports that there has been calls for SOEs to go to various other government departments at the African National Congress national executive committee meeting, currently underway in Pretoria. Executive director of the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation, Neeshan Balton, says they have also called on Ramaphosa and the ANC not to relent to threats by the EFF to disrupt next month’s State of the Nation Address if Gordhan remains in office.

“The attack really, is seen as an attack on the President given that he has placed Minister Gordhan in that position and has given him a particular mandate to execute. Minister Gordhan has been one of the key backers of Ramaphosa and therefore getting rid of him in our and the view of the veterans, weakens the President. Substantially, the overall fight against state capture and corruption in this country,” says Balton.

He himself the President said, he is going to reduce the number of Ministers. When realignment is proposed, it can't be an attack on him.

Sabc is so fixated on the Gordhan matter

Looks like that cancer of making individuals bigger than the country is back stronger and ugly. Africans must not make presidents bigger than the whole country. SA cabinet is too blotted, dismantle some of these useless portfolios.

Admin get your facts straight.
