According to the Presidency, this brings government’s representation in line with the cabinet appointments made after the April 2009 elections and is consistent with the 2010 guarantees being delivered by the departments that these ministers represent.

Kickoff.com reveals that among the new ministers that joined the board are Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, Minister of Police Nathi Mthethwa, Deputy Minister of Finance Nhlanhla Nene and Minister of Transport Sibusiso Ndebele.

These Cabinet Ministers join Minister of Sport and Recreation Makhenkesi Stofile, Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Sicelo Shiceka and Minister of Home Affairs Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, who are already serving on the board.

President Zuma wished the incoming representatives well as the country enters the final stages of preparing to host the first FIFA World Cup in Africa.

“I extend my gratitude to all the Ministers and Deputy Ministers who have been serving on the board,” President Zuma said in a statement.
