In its mandate to strengthen its position as the official opposition in KwaZulu Natal, IFP has embarked on reshuffling its own Shadow MECs in order to keep the ruling party on its toes.

“Our objective is to monitor the performance of our Province so that we will be able to evaluate the standard of the Provincial MECs work and the Premier at the end of each year. This is why it was essential for us to also reshuffle Shadow MECs in order to tackle the weak points of each MEC in their departments,” said Hon. Blessed Gwala, Leader of Official Opposition in KZN.

The IFP team of Shadow MECs is capable of tackling all departmental problems in order to achieve excellent service delivery and improve audit outcomes in the Province.

“As the official opposition we are the yardstick to effectively holding the executive on its failures,” said Hon. Gwala.

The reshuffling of the Shadow Cabinet is as follows:

• The Hon. Mntomuhle Khawula is the new Shadow MEC for Education from being Shadow MEC for Arts, Culture, Sports and Recreation,

• The Hon. Lindani Mncwango is now Shadow MEC for Transport from Education

• The Honourable iNkosi Ntandoyenkosi Shabalala is the new Shadow MEC for Arts, Culture, Sport and Recreation from Transport.
