Annette Steyn, Shadow Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries
Minister Tina Joemat-Pettersson has taken a month’s stress leave. In her shaken condition, she has somehow also seen fit to fire or suspend a plethora of staff. Selby Bokaba, one of her departmental spokespersons, is the most recent casualty. He was suspended after he reportedly complied with a directive from the Public Protector to give information to her office. The Minister herself is currently the subject of three separate and concurrent investigations by the Public Protector.
