Parliamentary career

A member of the African National Congress, Kubheka stood as an ANC parliamentary candidate from the Free State in the 2019 general election and was subsequently elected to the National Assembly and sworn in on 22 May 2019.[2] In June 2019, she was named to the Portfolio Committee on Communications.[3]
