In line with Section 12 of the Public Service Act as amended, North West Acting Premier Nono Maloyi and MEC for Social Development Lazarus Mokgosi and Social Development Head of Department Relebohile Mafokane have reached a mutual agreement for the latter's temporary transfer to the Office of the Premier. 

This is a lateral transfer which is aimed at stabilising the Department of Social Development. Mr Mofokane's terms and conditions of  employment remain the same and his transfer does not mean any wrongdoing on his part. The transfer is with effect from 02 August 2023.

    Van is hitch-hiking and he gets picked up by a larnie in a merc. After travelling awhile and making small talk, Van asks the larnie what the 3-pointed star on the bonnet is for. The larnie decides to have some fun with Van.
