President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to announce his new cabinet soon, which is set to include members of the different parties in the government of national unity. 

He was elected for a second term in Parliament with the support of the DA and IFP after the ANC failed to garner a governing majority in the recent general elections. 

The DA has been a vocal critic of Mashatile in the past. 

In February, the DA opened a case against Mashatile following media reports implicating him in corruption during his time as Human Settlements MEC in Gauteng. 

The party also urged Ramaphosa to fire him while delivering a so-called dossier containing various allegations to the Union Buildings.

However, Malatji said until this is proven in court, there is no reason for Mashatile to be removed as deputy president. 

“The policy of the ANC says that those who have been charged must step aside. The DP (deputy president) has not been charged by anyone. 

"If DA says it has enough evidence, it must allow the law institutions to take the course,” said Malatji.

He added: “We can’t be told by them that Mashatile is corrupt when institutions of the state have not charged him. On that one, we’re clear. The ANC will act once the deputy president has been charged with corruption. 

"Until then, he remains the deputy president of the ANC. We know that he will be appointed deputy president of the country because that’s how the ANC operates."
