Ntuli has called on the members of the executive to serve with dignity.

“I appreciate that we come from different political homes and we campaigned with different manifestos, however, now is the time to put the people of KZN first. All of us are expected to serve with honesty, dignity and diligence. We must never betray the people of the province that voted for us, there will be a process that ensures that we monitor and evaluate the performance of every member of the executive. We will respect all ideas and contributions that seek to promote and uplift our province.”
