Will he stay or will he go? The future of energy minister Gwede Mantashe is a difficult decision for President Cyril Ramaphosa.Predicting the changes is a mug's game, as there is no certainty at this point other than the departure of DD Mabuza from the deputy president role. And while the expectation is quite widely held that Ramaphosa has newfound power and discretion following his second Nasrec victory, the reality is that he remains constrained by the ANC and its allies.
It is unrealistic to expect sweeping changes. ANC cliques and factions are swift to punish a president who strays too far from internal expectations, rendering them a lame-duck president before the ink on the new appointments has dried.

politicsblahbla Yeah right...
politicsblahbla Mantashe? Just leave him in a corner to talk his usual nonsense to himself. What about the other incompetents e.g. Cele, Mbalula etc.
politicsblahbla Difficult decision given the energy crisis? It's a no-brainer. Get rid of him now
politicsblahbla CyrilRamaphosa is hopeless. This cabinet reshuffle will be a damp squib. Then the tortoise will retract into his shell. What a waste.😕What an anticlimax.😖 iNew Dawn yamasimba.🤬Sies! AncMustFall
politicsblahbla Actually very easy... Give him a time frame to improve the energy problem, if he fails, kick him out...
politicsblahbla Shame, would be such an easy decision for me.
politicsblahbla Bring back eleventeen Jacobs 😂😂😂
politicsblahbla And we are told 'state capture' is a thing of the past. This is one of the clearest indication on who runs the show in this country.
politicsblahbla What has Gwede do to these people?
politicsblahbla Have you ever hear a word from SA business, MR Price, TFG and all others. They are the reason for the S we in. They have no balls and don’t want to spoil their pay packages. When last did you hear from the mining bosses. FN cowards.
politicsblahbla What about Pravin the man in charge of all SOE’s🤷🏽♂️ I guess he gets a free pass neh
politicsblahbla Forget it! The entire ANC needs to be removed. Any 'reshuffle' by Ramaphosa is nothing else but moving chairs from one incompetent communist to the next incompetent communist.
politicsblahbla For CR to make competent cabinet appointments he will need to recruit from outside the party
politicsblahbla What difference will it make, all 400 in the running are Mamparas, just look at SA since Mandela left office.
politicsblahbla Keeping this clown in Energy would be the single biggest mistake of the Rhamaphosa cabinet. That would show us that Ramaphosa has no real urgency for change.
politicsblahbla Mantashe is not fit to run a spaza shop.... No offence to all Spaza shop owners
politicsblahbla U mean choose between eskom and Ipps?
politicsblahbla Let's not forget this guy has shares everywhere, proved that business comes first to him eg.Marikana. enough said, let me keep quiet now
politicsblahbla our country needs businessman and not scammers
politicsblahbla Ramaphosa don't have the balls to make unpopular decisions ...
politicsblahbla Gwede touched the nerves when he exposed those that were pushing for IPPs, Instead of providing electricity. Gwede must stay
politicsblahbla If I was Ramaphosa I'd put all the newly NEC members and those MPs in parliament on a list with their qualifications and experiences. age too. Then select from that list. If none in the ANC qualifies, i go to universities and ask professors who can help out. Cause it's really bad
politicsblahbla Whites are trying very hard to get Gwede out but if Rama decides to listen to white people and remove Gwede then he will be removed by the NEC mercilessly
politicsblahbla It should be what South Africans need, particularly the poor not business. Who's business anyway? When did they say they wanted this? Any media statement from 'business'? Or are you the business or representative thereof?
politicsblahbla Mantashe must go !!!!
politicsblahbla We need a Minister of Loadshedding. For the next two years minimum. As for Gwede, the ANC is painfully slow at retiring the old guard and giving younger leaders a chance. Gwede is a good example of this.
politicsblahbla Ramaphosa will be removed from office if he removes Mantashe from tht portfolio
politicsblahbla Business needs to stop being invisible.Stand up to this government and its incompetence
politicsblahbla
politicsblahbla Mantashe Uyabuya. R1 Million anyone wanna bet
politicsblahbla Don't expect too much from a compromised Ramaphosa. He will do what's best to cover his own indiscretions before considering what's best for the country. He's a lame duck.
politicsblahbla He should move Mantashe to an old age home. He is a Flippin useless dinosaur that causes a lot of strain to the economy.
politicsblahbla Was Ramaphosa elected by four businesses people 🤔
politicsblahbla Mantashe will stay.
