RAMAPHOSA Razzmatazz
With much pomp and ceremony, President Cyril Ramaphosa was inaugurated this week as head of the country’s seventh administration since the advent of democracy.
After the congratulatory clinking of crystal goblets comes the next ritual: the handing out of the poisoned chalices. Ramaphosa will, as quickly as possible, want to settle with his Government of National Unity partners who gets what ministerial position and whether to shrink the previously bloated Cabinet of 30 Ministers and 36 Deputy-Ministers.
