THE Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism (DEAT) has welcomed Nosipho Jezile-Ngcaba as its new Director General.
“Mrs Jezile-Ngcaba is a driven and capable manager. She has been with our Department since 2003, firstly as Chief Director for Social Responsibility & Projects and then as Chief Operating Officer since 2005. She has also served in the capacity of Acting Director General since March this year. Mrs Jezile-Ngcaba has risen through the ranks of our department and consequently has a wealth of experience and insight in this portfolio. This experience, combined with her own extensive skills and knowledge, makes her almost uniquely suited to the position of Director General, and I have no doubt that her service in this new position will carry our Department to new heights. I look forward to continue working with her,” said Marthinus van Schalkwyk, Minister of Environmental Affairs and Tourism.
