Louisa Mabe

Premier Thandi Modise fired her from the Executive Council in June 2013 after she was accused of involvement in procurement irregularities.

[4][5] In addition, from August 2010 she acted as MEC for Sports, Arts and Culture after the incumbent, Grace Pampiri-Bothman, was fired for insubordination.

[6] Modiselle resigned from office in November 2010 and was replaced as Premier by Thandi Modise, who initially retained Mabe as MEC for Finance.

[10] She was harshly criticised in the provincial legislature's Standing Committee on Public Accounts, at that time chaired by Hlomane Chauke,[10] and in June 2013 she was fired by Modise.

In a statement, Modise said that Mabe's removal was not a finding of guilt against her but a pragmatic move "aimed at faster delivery and eliminating the need for us to answer for hang-ups".
