Chief Justice Sandile Ngcobo led the swearing in of six new ministers and 12 deputy ministers appointed by President Jacob Zuma.

The ministers are a new addition to Zuma’s Cabinet following a reshuffle of the Cabinet over the weekend.

The ceremony was held at the Presidential Guest House in Pretoria yesterday.

Absent was incoming Arts and Culture Minister Paul Mashatile, who still needs to be sworn in as a Member of Parliament.

Mashatile was appointed Deputy Minister of Arts and Culture when he served as Premier of Gauteng and was never sworn in the National Assembly.
