If the ANC Youth League Free State have, their way Hlaudi Motsoeneng will soon hold a minister’s position in parliament. After Brian Molefe was sworn in as an MP, it is widely speculated that Motsoeneng will be the next person to become a member of parliament.
The Free State Youth League count Mostoeneng as the ideal person to take over from the minister of Rural Development and Land Reform, Gugile Nkwinti. The league’s view is that Mostoeneng is best with Land Affairs will work well in light of his radical views.
Both Mostoeneng and Molefe failed as heads of parastatals, but are rewarded with a new life in politics. In Motsoeneng’s case, the Cape High Court ruled that his appointment at the SABC was illegal and unconstitutional, and it is found that he was not qualified for the position.
Meanwhile, Mostoeneng thrives on the new attention toward him and says it’s not just the league that support him, but that he gets support from “the continent” because people know what he stands for.
