The president said the meeting, held in DRC, looked at ‘very positive’ initiatives that Sadc member states have embarked on
President Cyril Ramaphosa has described the 42nd summit of the heads of state and government of the Southern African Development Community in Kinshasa in Democratic Republic of Congo as “the most successful”.
“We received a very uplifting report from the prime minister, who informed us that the reforms are about to be concluded and all that remains is [for] the king and parliament to sign off on the bills. This will be a milestone in the life of Lesotho.” “We also did something that was most wonderful where we honoured the founding fathers of Sadc...” This was done by inviting their families, including their widows, who were awarded medals from Sadc in recognition of the role they played as a sign of remembrance.
“All this is aimed at enhancing stability at a political level but also at an economic level to ensure there is integration, investment, trade, dealing with poverty and increasing the creation of jobs. So it was a very successful summit where everybody felt like Sadc is dealing with issues. We also dealt with the issue of Eswatini,” he said.
