President Cyril Ramaphosa will take his latest imbizo to Sedibeng in Gauteng on Friday.
Ramaphosa started his countrywide presidential imbizo roadshow in March this year, canvassing communities in North West, Free State and Mpumalanga as part of government’s district development model.
The aim of the imbizo is to listen to the concerns of communities about service delivery challenges for all three spheres of government together with civil society to respond better. In his state of the nation address in February, Ramaphosa made a pledge to engage with communities around the country. This time he will spend the day at the Sharepeville cricket pitch where he will attempt to provide solutions to some challenges.
According to the presidency, the Sedibeng district municipality comprises the Emfuleni, Midvaal and Lesedi local municipalities, which all feature high levels of unemployment, skills shortages and aged water and sanitation infrastructure which results in sewer blockages, spillages, pump station breakdowns, water leaks and burst pipes.
