Government has clarified reports that its plans to pull its job adverts from mainstream newspapers as a form of retribution.

GCIS Acting Director General Donald Liphoko said Vuk’uzenzele is an important medium for people in lower LSM’s and rural areas will share in governments total recruitment spend on merit as the largest single copy monthly newspaper.

Liphoko said Vuk’uzenzele will be sharing in governments total recruitment spend as part of the self-funding model to ensure that we can make more copies of the publication available to the public.

“It’s worth noting that governments advertising in other mainstream publications won’t see that we will be diverting spend to support our own title” Liphoko added.
