Executive reshuffle | President hires and fires DA ministers

DA leader John Steenhuisen has moved to quell rumours about the axing of Minister Dion George. President Ramaphosa has appointed Willie Aucamp in his place as Forestry, Fisheries and Environment Minister. Steenhuisen confirmed the removal is in line with a request from the DA. Ramaphosa has also named Alexandra Abrahams as Deputy Trade, Industry and Competition Minister. Abrahams replaces Andrew Whitfield, who was removed in June over unauthorised travel to the US. #dstv403
