Speaking to the reporters on the sidelines of a programmeon Thursday, he said, “There will be minor reshuffling tomorrow. You will have one new minister tomorrow.”

Defending the reshuffle, he said, “It is a question of creating new space for some of our colleagues and at the same time friends who have been in the Cabinet will then be available to further work for the party because this is how democracy works.”
