Making Sense of Cyril's Reshuffle
President Cyril Ramaphosa announced his new cabinet last week. In his message about the reshuffle, Ramaphosa said that the changes come as the country faces a number of challenges including the Covid-19 vaccination programme, peace and stability after recent and unrest and is now mobilising resources to rebuild the economy.
Did Ramaphosa's cabinet reshuffle go far enough? Or this is just a politically balanced approach to ensure votes at the upcoming elections?
What does this mean from an economic perspective?
Who are the winners and losers of Ramaphosa's cabinet reshuffle?
Is it a wise move for the president to take security under his wing? Or it shows a lack of trust?
Did the minister of finance and the minister of health actually resign or they were pushed off the cliff
