The ANC has appointed human settlements minister Mmamoloko Kubayi as head of economic transformation.
Kubayi, 43, succeeds Enoch Godongwana who relinquished the powerful party position after being appointed finance minister in August. A statement on Kubayi’s appointment will be issued later, ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe said by phone on Tuesday.
Kubayi is acting finance minister while Godongwana is in Washington in the US attending the IMF spring meetings, the finance ministry said. Godongwana will return to SA on April 25. A former tourism minister, she faced criticism last year for championing black-ownership as a requirement for access to a fund created to help the industry overcome the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.
