Ivy to step down
Matsepe-Casaburri delivered her budget vote speech today and afterwards confirmed what many observers expected for some time – that she will step down as Communications Minister after the 2009 elections.
Matsepe-Casaburri was not selected as part of the new ANC NEC and as a strong Mbeki supporter it was rumored that she will not be asked to form part of the ‘new’ government after the 2009 elections.
The Minister confirmed that she will not be part of the new government and indicated that she will spend her time focusing on non-governmental work.
Matsepe-Casaburri has been Minister of Communications since 2000.
