President Cyril Ramaphosa congratulated newly appointed Forestry Minister, David Maynier.
President Cyril Ramaphosa reminded newly appointed Forestry Minister David Maynier from the DA that there was no room for opposition politics inside the Government of National Unity (GNU).
Congratulating Maynier after he had taken the oath of office at the Union Buildings, Ramaphosa stressed that members of the GNU are expected to govern together despite their political differences.
“Now we are no longer on two sides, we are on one side. There are no longer those oppositional things,” Ramaphosa told Maynier.
The remarks came as five new ministers and deputy ministers from the ANC and DA were officially sworn into office following changes to the National Executive announced by the President on Tuesday night.
