Tweeps are convinced media personality Bonang Matheba is celebrating after minister of sports, arts and culture Nathi Mthethwa was axed.

On Monday evening President Cyril Ramaphosa announced his new cabinet. Nathi Mthethwa was booted out of the national executive, with Zizi Kodwa taking his place.

Twitter was abuzz with comments from those tagging the international star and suggesting the media personality might be the happiest person in Mzansi. 

They claimed 'Queen B' had a major beef with Nathi after she criticised him publicly several times.

This included slamming Nathi over plans for a R22m “monumental” flag and calling for him to resign.

“Fire this man. Please. You’re useless and we all hate you. You have no clue what you're doing. Go away,” she said at the time.

Here's a look at some of the reactions online:
