Chief operations officer of the presidency Lakela Kaunda says ‘Cabinet does not discuss the appointment or removals of ministers and deputy ministers’
The future of Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan was not on the agenda at a Cabinet meeting on Wednesday‚ a presidential aide said on Thursday. Chief operations officer of the presidency Lakela Kaunda said such discussions would not happen in Cabinet meetings, anyway. "For the record‚ Cabinet does not discuss the appointment or removals of ministers and deputy ministers. It is the highest decision-making structure of government, which discusses government business‚ just in case some of compatriots believed journos who may have said yesterday’s meeting was called to discuss the so-called reshuffle‚" Kaunda wrote on her Facebook page.
