The SACP in Gauteng has declared that Gauteng Finance MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko is “the first African woman” to be appointed to that position in the province. SACP provincial secretary Jacob Mamabolo - who is also MEC for Roads and Transport in the same provincial cabinet - made the remark despite the incumbent Minister of Forestry and Fisheries and Environmental Affairs, Barbara Creecy, who was born and bred in Joburg, being the first woman to hold such a position in Gauteng in 2014.
After South Africa’s first democratic elections, Jabu Moleketi was Gauteng’s MEC for Finance and Economic Affairs until 2004. Moleketi completed two terms as finance boss before former president Thabo Mbeki appointed him as deputy finance minister in 2004. Former ANC chief whip Mandla Nkomfe in the Gauteng provincial legislature took over as Finance and Economic Affairs MEC. Nkomfe was retained as Finance and Economic Affairs MEC after the May 2009 elections. He held the post until May 2014. He was replaced by Creecy who was appointed Finance and e-Governance MEC. Creecy served until May this year under premier David Makhura. She was briefly replaced by Panyaza Lesufi, who lasted in that office for less than two days.
“We believe comrade unleashes a wave of hope that black and African women can lead and play a critical role in the department that is entrusted with people’s finances and state procurement, to improve the living conditions of the working class,” said SACP provincial secretary Jacob Mamabolo.
