Great to see 3 African Govts with gender parity in cabinets, setting the example for many others to follow. Only 11 examples of this around the world? #SouthAfrica #Ethiopia #Rwanda #equalitynow

[Moussa Faki Mahamat @AUC_MoussaFaki]

My sincere congratulations to President @CyrilRamaphosa in attaining gender parity in his Cabinet! SA becomes the 3rd African govt to achieve full gender parity at cabinet level after #Rwanda + #Ethiopia.True development can only be achieved if it involves men and women equally
