Dear Minister Gungubele

I'm tempted to call you by your clan name Minister simply because of your humble and Ubuntu you have towards strangers. That makes me feel like I know you and can relate with you on a personal level. I once met you at Cape Town International Airport, when I told you I'm from Gqeberha, ndinguMkhuma, you jokingly made fun of comrades from Gqrberha, and we had a great laugh about that.

Your performance in the portfolios you 'were' heading Minister, from being the Minister in the Presidency and now in the Department of Communication and Digital Technologies, has made an impact in the ordinary SAns.

Your guidance in the Presidency brought stability within the SSA, and also, your work towards bringing digitalization to govt institutions has been splendid.

Imagine if one were to be closer to you for wisdom, mentorship, and guidance, our country would breed intellectuals and patriots that will take this country forward.

It would have been nice had we exchanged numbers in Cape Town.

Continue the good work Minister, hopefully you'll be in the Cabinet in the coming administration.
