THUMBS UP TO THE COMMUNICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE DEPUTY PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA.

On Monday March 2012  the Star newspaper reported that the Deputy President of South Africa Mr Kgalema Mothlanthe has requested the Public Protector Advocate Thuli Madonsela to do an investigation following the Sunday  media report regarding his partner Gugu Mtshali being allegedly linked  to buy government appproval for a plan to sell helicopters in Iran. Apart from the allegations about his partner I would like to congratulate Mr Kgalema Mothlanthe and his Communication team for quickly responding to these allegation by requesting the Public Protector to do a probe.Their immediate action showed that his communication team knows much about the importancy of image and brand protection.
