What does the constitution say about the powers and responsibilities of the cabinet, deputy ministers and what mechanisms exist for accountability? #cabinet #coalitiongovernment #parliament #gnu #MightiJamieTV
What you say is correct. Ministers have been placed in positions with no knowledge of what their position entails. How can you have a minister of electricity who has no training or certificate to prove he or she understands what needs to be done. We have had a cabinet of ministers who have no inkling of what their position requires of them, hence the terrible results we see today. Your points are well explained. Thank you and keep up the good work.
The show is “the dissection” the guy wears a lab coat and glasses. Humour on point, wit on point. The info seems robust but delivered in a creative and fun, engaging way. Those complaining can head over to SABC for the stuffy propaganda news.. yes I want a news reporter who can say “these ninjas are crazy” because …. These ninjas are crazy
Can u believe that I don't trust the newspapers. I just come over here for valuable analysis and truthful forthright reporting. Thank you for your valuable and informative delivery. I am indeed learning.
Mighti U tell the truth on this platform . U are very highly intellegent and competent .U talk like a gentlement .Great to have people like u in these platforms who is not Arrogent but tell the truth😂😂😂👍👍👍👌👌👌
Unless Parliament is populated by totally honest men and virtuous women, then the words in the Constitution could mean very little in practice. This is why one of the first things the DA wanted was that its Cabinet Ministers were also parliamentarians.
@@senzomemela1311 from what we know and do not know the general answer would be no. No coincidence that negotiation of the constitution was led by Cyril Ramaphosa representing the ANC. Look what has happened under his watch.
True Jamie, technical expertise is key, ( distinguish between less educated/ semi- literate and educated in a different faculty). When u look at it from this perspective, it is possible to lead without the technical expertise. To lead effectively when you are not an expert in the TYPE OF WORK being done requires a combination of humility, strong communication skills, problem-solving ability, and the ability to build and empower a strong team. More importantly , surround yourself with people with the tech skill. You find Engineers leading Financial services institutions.
Engineering students do well in finance because the maths they do is very complex and transferable and because of the problem solving methodologies they learn in university. I think other professions would not easily be able to make the same transitions.
Interesting video. J agree 100% with the idea of educated/skilled leaders. I think in Zambia & Rwanda they specify a minimum level of education. In SA I would place a bachelor's degree (or equivalet) as a minimum level of qualification required for cabinet & MPs.
Steenhuisen is very intellegent and highly qualified what l see .He is competant and hardworking and can take the country forward that what matters most👌👌👌👍👍🤪🤪🤪
Your great strength from SMWX is that you have better rotation and turnaround time, we are here!!!! But please mnatse please think about your background!!!! PLEASE!!!
Here is what must be understood: (WITs degree notwithstanding) One embraces Capitalism and its' toady, AfroPean system of diving up a poision(ed) pie; prepared and served to de Sheeple, at Ones' own demise By-de-by...most appreciative of your channel, and de work you do. ¡Well done!
Thank You for explaining how things MUST work by following the LAW...So,Anyone that doesn't follow the LAW is breaking the LAW and making themselves liable to be Procecuted 😮?
KZN province didn't do well for the ANC in these past elections but the president was very inclusive in this GNU with 40% to the ANC side, mchunu, njabulo, Sihle, Mdu and others because people there voted for MK party project but though the numbers were down for the ANC in KZN, he gave them an opportunity to express themselves in the ministerial positions
The people you are mentioning, mathematically or otherwise, do not currently represent the expression of the people of KZN.... KZN people know what they want...Anyway, the true leader of the KZN people is the King...who doesn't come and go every five years.....
Firstly knowledge is important that's the role academic institutions play then experience comes with the job. Not any person can obtain a qualification...that's a dang lie
As far as qualifications go, I agree that the ministers should posses qualifications that are applicable to the ministry that they are to run. This is unfortunately not the case across the board… steenhuizen and agriculture? Angie and defence? Mantashe? In the current cabinet… time to regulate ability to be considered for cabinet to appropriately qualified people.
Informative breakdown of the role of Cabinet.... thanks for your effort 👌. I like your examples to drive the point home.. very cunning 😂 The issue of academic qualifications going forward must be considered in light of the future denial or barriers to access academic qualifications. Otherwise like in 1994, it may become a future prohibitive barrier to those without means to access academic qualifications.
Hi brother, I'm one of your avid followers, and highly rate your view points. However, I tend to disagree with you when it comes to the choice of politicians in positions of power, not that I advocate the status quo, but hey, it is what it is. Let's take the very John Steenhuisen you've been hammering about. Look, I hold no fort for him, neither am I a DA voter/follower. In my humble opinion, John has been in the game of politics for over a decade, and every time he is elected, mind you ELECTED, by among whom are people of stature, medical doctors, lawyers, engineers, professionals of varied industries in general. In short, the very educated ones. So, there must be something that they see in him, other than academic qualifications. Sure, he may come short in some areas of his leadership, but in essence this will be offset by the advisory panel he will be working with, together with his personal one/s, I guess he's allowed that. I've learnt and observed from the very Gedleyihlekisa, that in politics the best weapon is the ability to permeate through the masses on the ground, THAT CHARM!! Most educated people are aloof when in positions of power and tend to drift away from the very constituents that elevated them in the first place, you may disagree on this point, but it's playing out even as we speak. ANC's fall from grace, while JZ's numbers are talking a different language, despite the learned few that have turned their backs on him because of what they gather from their readings as well as social media and not what they are fed. I guess I will have to cut it off here, otherwise I may go days on end. Let's also give him the chance we afforded JZ, I know two wrongs will never make a right. HE MAY WELL BE A SURPRISE PACKAGE!! 😂😂😂😂🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂
It's quite disappointing to see that the land has been taken back to the Afrikaaners once again to say the least. DA represents racism whether you agree with that or not. Bass John on the other hand will always get support from any racist white person, educated or not. Who do you think is more likely to benefit from this according to you or alternatively who's best interest do you think he will be serving?
How about following up with a video that shows the educational qualifications of all the ministers & deputy ministers? That could be interesting because we would then be able to gauge if they are fit for purpose.
I would really like to erase from everyone the notion that cabinet ministers 'need' to have technical skills related to their posts. Cabinet ministers are required to bring wisdom, stability, direction and vision to a department. The department already employs 100s of technical people to perform such tasks. The question is: Would it help to be highly competent in that field? Absolutely however it isnt a crucial prerequisite. On the flipside, ofcos you cannot be a complete idiot either in your sequence of logic or temperament. Thank you.
@@UhuruUhuru Yes. Maybe ask Sizwe for tips, he recently seems to have finally gotten his audio sorted on SMWX. Too much reverb here. Sorry to complain but for longer episodes it matters.
Our constitution is very goos. Problem is that the ANC having majority rule all these years did what they want. Feom now they will be held liable by other members of the GNU for their mess ups and this is why a multi party government is so important.
Thanks to dissection, Jamnandas has really ruined buy selling SSA, he was not supposed to be part of cabinet at all because he couldn't come in front and clarify everything.
This is real Democracy in Practice. Democracy is inclusive, it defines Rights and Responsibilities for everyone. South Africa is brave to take this way. It is one Nation for all, equal before the Law anf before God. The Foundation of the Nation muss be Love, this leads to a just Society.
Please think about changing the background, I know we may be at initiation stage, but PLEASE that boiling thing behind you is quiet distractive... Please , we know you from quality SMWX...you cant drop the ball...please , you got the content, but that boiling thing oh nooooo, it takes wawy from the content, I cant finish sorry!
No, I beg to differ.. What's needed, especially here in Africa, is basic knowledge coz the problem we face are basic no need for dogmatic approaches.. You don't need a PHD to enforce policy on food security by promoting interventions that support imaging farmers. You don't need a degree to ensure accountability, value for money and timely execution of development projects NO! Today we've more poor people than they were during Shaka the Zulu, when so called degrees weren't there..
Since the da didn't get the positions they wanted🤔 I wonder if they'll still protect ramaphosa on the day of no confidence motion? Are they going to vote or not?
I wish they tackle edùcation...this 30% pass is rubbish.We want 50% pass rate. Build more technical schooĺs please...and all must have trade test facilities.
So sad how we are lead by people who have no integrity nor accountability. Why would you accept a post knowing so well you are not qualified for?... South Africans you need God, turn from your wicked ways!!
@tobolee6385 The Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development in South Africa has historically been dominated by white individuals, with a lack of representation from Black ppl. There is a perception that agriculture is seen as a "white" industry, with Black people feeling excluded and not encouraged to pursue careers in the sector. This is partly due to the legacy of apartheid policies that marginalized Black farmers.
@@tobolee6385the land is your identity, ...it's your confidence... knowledge, laws, just resources...ngithembe ukuthi uyezwa, you middle class one....
Experience how to care of Citizens means Good Leaders. Wich Liberation War Leadership only experience guns, weapons and thieves disrespect laws, rules, Acts and Constitution
Very bloated cabinet, loss of tax payers money. How to hold them accountable especially as the ANC holds most portfolios, doesn't seem quite right.Collective responsibility for each other? How will this be resolved when they are not doing their job? Hopefully they can be fired. The ANC have a terrible track record, have they had change of heart?
This cabinet is a mess. How can you lead and supervise of something that you don't even have basic knowledge of that??anyway our president always said he has his own Ankole azifuyile. All this mafia will not go pass john hlophe and adv Mpofu kusazoshuba ephalamende and ATM.MK.and EFF are patiently waiting for them in Parliament
Gravy Train 🚂 v2.0 FSA Full Steam Ahead unless they run out of coal 🔥. Another 30 years of corruption ahead. Expect the best in governance but plan for the worst 🙏
I disagree with the qualification for ministerial positions argument. It is true that best qualified people tend be better suited for certain ministerial positions. However, if ministers must be qualified, we might as well require the formation of a political party to registered by a qualified individual since you need some education to govern. This would make it impossible for figures like former President Zuma who has no formal education yet his was able to reach political heights most qualified politicians will never. Not everone can be President of a party, leave that party and in the same year be an official opponent. The EFF is 10 years old, has a good track record and is made up of highly qualified individuals yet they could not be official opposition. Its not always about who is most qualified but who is most capable. A president must be allowed to choose his hunting dogs however they see fit to deliver the best outcomes of his plan. A great deal of loyalty and respect is necessary to execute mandates by the President.
The fall of the ANC is eminent. I see not good coming out of this, we cannot keep on pleasing the rich at the expense of the majority who are poorer. Kenya will be a child’s play.
This "expensive contraption" , called Parliament , is equally disappointing to the left as it is to the right , so I suppose we can say the centre holds ? The ancient Greeks (who invented democracy) also hated democracy . But well , the reserve bank , and Mr Lesetia Kganyago is safe in his independence . Bonds are safe . The Vandals are kept at bay . Rome will fall , but not today . In a way . Rome never fell , in a way , we are still Rome .
Do you know what racism is? If you have never experienced it you will never know it, some of us experienced it first hand and by the way we need such people like Malema in our country not people like you who are ignorant and gullible because education.
