I wish they would leave her in one position long enough to fix it completely before moving her around again. She really is a hard working, ethical lady.

Wonder why they passed over Fatima Chohan?

The stability within the cabinet is questionable,msholozi keep on reshuffling,it is like trial and error test,they test if you can do it if you cannot you are reshuffled. I never seen so much reshuffling before. That is why we need fresh blood,someone who will pick ministers based on their said portfolios,not putting them in a trial and error test.

====================================
Naledi Pandor has been appointed the minister of home affairs because Nkosazana Dalmimi Zuma has vacated her position to head up African whatwaht at Adis Ababa.

Your comment is not objective, it is out of hatret for President Zuma.

===========================
That is a top managhement position, the main functions will be to manage. so knowledge of management is the only pre requisite for this position. you don't have to be conversant with operational issues to manage any office at the highest level.

@Mdeeva,
It is interesting that not so long ago people like you were praising Msholozi for the first 2 reshuffles which we all agreed were necessary. Then there was a third one, which again was necessitated by the development of that time. Once again Msholozi has lost one of his competent ministers to the AU and has been forced to re-arrange his cabinet. Now what is wrong with that?
You keep complaining and nagging ALL THE TIME. Are you people that bored?
And honestly if you think you know better than JZ, then why are you not sitting on that chair? Have a life....

Bathathe Msholozi. Siyokubeka Nxamalala eMangaung. Fika Zibandlela sesijahile. Sengiyithathile ngisho nelivu ukuze ngiyoshaya isiphambano eduze kobuso bakho qhawe lami. Indlela icacile. Sizobakhipha oMashatile esikhundleni emva kweMangaung "for misrepresenting GP".
