The newly elected sports minister, Gayton McKenzie, announced that he will donate 100% of his parliamentary salary to the Joshlin Smith Foundation for missing children.
The Patriotic Alliance leader is set to earn R2.68 million annually from his ministerial position and is expected to occupy the post for the next five years. Had he remained an ordinary member of parliament, his salary would have remained at R1.27 million.
‘I will have a million rand less posters, I will have a million rand less t-shirts, I will have a million rand less of diesel for my campaign but for me, what is bigger than politics is finding that green-eyed girl,’ he said at the time.
