#Firstpost South Africa: Minister Faces Trouble Over a Decade-Old Racist Remarks| Firstpost Africa | N18G
South Africa’s Minister of Sports, Arts, and Culture, Gayton McKenzie, is facing intense scrutiny and calls for his removal from office after his “racially offensive” social media posts dating back to 2013 resurfaced. The posts, which contain derogatory and racist language directed at Black South Africans, were unearthed by social media users in response to McKenzie’s own outrage over a separate incident. The minister, who leads the Patriotic Alliance, a key party in President Cyril Ramaphosa’s multi-party coalition government, had branded himself as a champion of the rights of black and coloured people and criticised a group of podcasters for their own use of offensive slurs. Pressure is also mounting on President Ramaphosa to fire McKenzie over the controversy.
