Home Affairs: We Know We Suck
Deputy Minister of Home Affairs Malusi Gigaba wrote an op-ed piece in the Sunday Times basically apologising for complete shambles in the department and promising changes for the better in the near future. Personally I’ll believe it when I see it. To turn around that department will require a top to bottom overhaul that will take years to complete.
That being said it’s refreshing to hear a cabinet level official admit their department has major problems, something that is a bit of a change from the ‘never say sorry’ philosophy that permeates other departments.
