Gauteng premier Lesufi set to announce cabinet on Wednesday evening

Mbalula said DA was given a 2pm deadline on Wednesday to join the GPU. At the time of the briefing, which is still under way, it was not clear whether the DA would be in or out of the GPU. 

Mbalula alleged that the DA is in open violation of an initial agreement with the ANC which would have seen the DA getting a deputy speaker in the legislature, three MECs and six chairs of portfolio committees.

Mbalula said: “We are unable to adhere to DA’s proposal. The DA is not negotiating in good faith. They are not the only party in the legislature,” Mbalula heated.

“We will announce a cabinet that will represent the people of Gauteng, that will execute that mission. The reality is that the DA wants us out of government,” Lesufi said.
