Pretoria - Minister in The Presidency, Collins Chabane, has expressed confidence in the ability of GCIS CEO, Jimmy Manyi, to execute his duties.
This comes after repeated calls in the media, asking for the removal of Manyi from his position.
This follows statements Manyi made last year, which had implications on the country's race relations.
"Manyi has since apologised for his statements and for the offence they have caused. [He] remains the Cabinet spokesperson and the Chief Executive Officer of GCIS, and continues to execute his responsibilities," said Chabane on Tuesday.
"... Manyi, in executing his duties, has a responsibility to represent the views and decisions of government and not that of his own. He will continue to receive the support of the ministry and should be given an opportunity to prove himself in his new role," added the minister. - BuaNews
