Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi is announcing new members of the executive council (MECs) for the province’s seventh administration.

Lesufi is set to name the new MECs at a media briefing in Sandton and there are expectations that he will include non-ANC members of the provincial legislature (MPLs) in his executive.

“The appointment of the incoming MECs takes into consideration the competency, skills as well as ensuring representativity across gender as mandated by the people of Gauteng,” Lesufi on Monday afternoon in statement.

Lesufi’s announcement comes over two weeks since he was elected Gauteng premier by MPLs on 14 June 2024.
