President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to call a family meeting to address the scourge of food poisoning cases in the country. This is according to Minister in the Presidency, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni.
Briefing the media on Wednesday after the cabinet’s meeting, minister in the Presidency Khumbudzo Ntshavheni could not confirm when the address would take place.
“There is work we are doing in the ministerial committees and justice cluster in preparation for the president’s address. The president will address [the nation] but I do not want to pre-empt as there is still work being done by [the] committees and the justice cluster,”
“There is also work being done by the provinces. When all that work is incorporated in the joint effort, the president will be able to [make his] address. If we complete that work today [Wednesday], the president will be able to address the nation today or tomorrow [Thursday] — but he will address the nation this week.
