Did defence minister inherit a toothless SANDF?

February 12, 2025

Pressure on Minister of Defence and Military Veterans Angie Motshekga is mounting as South Africa grapples with its role in international conflicts.

- Jarryd Westerdale

An urgent debate in the National Assembly on Monday urged the minister to take responsibility despite having inherited the problems that led to the deaths of 14 soldiers in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Motshekga spent 15 years as minister of basic education before being assigned to the defence portfolio in July last year.

Parties in and out of the government of national unity lambasted the minister and the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) bosses for the loss of lives.
