Pressure mounts for Ramaphosa to downsize cabinet - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Pressure is mounting on Presidentto unveil a downsized cabinet, to illustrate that government is serious about cutting spending. South Africa’s cabinet is one of the largest in the world. It had 16 departments in 1996 and has since ballooned to 34, with 37 deputy ministers.

The size of the country’s cabinet has been growing since the late former president Nelson Mandela’s government. Ramaphosa will be sworn in on 25 May after which he will appoint a new cabinet. ANC national chairperson“Beyond these elections, we will continue and we will work harder and you know that President Ramaphosa committed himself to a smaller cabinet. We are hoping that that smaller cabinet will be based on performance and merit because it is only the capacity that is brought into the cabinet that will make the difference.

Pressure from where?

And EFF has doubled parliamentary presence 😉

We have given him the mandate to lead us, let's give him space to lead.

Let our President execute his duties without fear and advise later if needs be.

What pressure bcuz he told us during sona that he will reduce cabinet

Remove SACP

President CR please do not include in the cabinet those implicated in state capture and corruption, nor Mrs Dlamini Zuma as vice president. That is dangerous and will open ANC and S.A to further capturing

Please Mr President!
