President Cyril Ramaphosa has asked his deputy, David Mabuza, to remain in his position until such time as 'the modalities around his departure are finalised”. | JKwritingz
President Cyril Ramaphosa's spokesperson, Vincent Magwenya, on Sunday confirmed that Deputy President David Mabuza had been asked to remain in his position until modalities around his departure are finalised.
This confirmation comes after Mabuza publicly said that it was only a matter of time before Ramaphosa announced his departure. He added that despite such a request being made,"the president has asked that the deputy president remains in his role until such a time as the modalities of his departure and transition have been finalised."
He said he believed it was logical that he resigns as the country's second-in-command to make space for Mashatile, who was elected ANC deputy president at the party's December conference.
