She's grateful the GNU has given the opposition a chance to serve the people.
Newly appointed Deputy Minister of Small Business Development Jane Sithole has commended the government of national unity (GNU) for granting former opposition parties a chance to display their leadership in rendering a service to the communities.
Sithole, who is also a DA leader in Mpumalanga, was one of the ministers and deputy ministers sworn in last week. She has urged GNU leaders to forget their political affiliations when serving the people of South Africa.
"When we are in parliament we must forget our political affiliation and work hard to achieve our common goal - to ensure that our people are well taken care of.
"Due to the unity I saw in the department I'm assigned to, I believe we will achieve a lot. When I met the team for the first time, it seemed like we had known each other for a long time. This gives me hope that it will be easy to work together... The good team spirit I noticed was amazing.
