Mabuyane premiership: 2019–present
On 28 May 2019, following the 2019 general election, newly elected Premier Oscar Mabuyane announced his new Executive Council; he retained four MECs from the previous administration, although three of those four had not joined until 2018.[7][8] On 18 February 2021, Mabuyane announced that he had fired Sindiswa Gomba as Health MEC amid allegations that she had been involved in procurement irregularities.[9] Gomba's replacement was appointed in a cabinet reshuffle affecting four portfolios, announced by Mabuyane in early March.[10]
In May 2022, shortly after losing his bid to oust Mabuyane as ANC Provincial Chairperson at a party conference, Public Works MEC Babalo Madikizela announced his intention to resign from government. He officially resigned in late July.[11] His departure occasioned a cabinet reshuffle, announced on 16 August, in which Mabuyane appointed three new MECs and moved three others to different portfolios.[12][13] The two MECs fired in the reshuffle – Fezeka Nkomonye and Weziwe Tikana-Gxothiwe – were viewed as having supported Madikizela's campaign at the ANC conference.[14]
