Pretoria - The Presidency has clarified reports relating to an alleged ambassadorial posting for the Premier of KwaZulu-Natal, Dr Zweli Mkhize.
It said the reports that President Jacob Zuma was to appoint Dr Mkhize as ambassador to first New Zealand and then Australia were false.
"The rumours and reports are false, unfounded and mischievous. The President is not about to, and has also not appointed the Premier as an ambassador to anywhere in the world. He has also never had a discussion about a diplomatic posting with Premier Mkhize. The stories and rumours are a complete fabrication," said the Presidency.
