PHUTI MOSOMANE
THE South African Democratic Teachers’ Union (SADTU) Free State Provincial Secretary Mokholoane Moloi said the union welcomes the appointment of MEC for Education Makalo Mohale.
“We believe that the Premier has made a good choice in appointing MEC Makalo Mohale as he has been the MEC for the Department of Economic, Small Business Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (DESTEA) and understands the operation of government,” Moloi said.
He brings with him the knowledge and experience he acquired in DESTEA that the union believes could benefit the education sector, which is not new to him as he was once appointed as MEC for Education on an acting capacity in the absence of the late MEC Tate Makgoe.
Moloi said Mohale is a seasoned leader of the ANC who understands education policies of the movement that government must implement.
“We have full confidence in his capabilities and competence that he demonstrated in DESTEA to improve education.”
“As SADTU we are looking forward to a cordial, yet robust working relationship with the MEC that will enhance labour peace in the interest of education in the province,” Moloi concluded.
