To ensure President Cyril Ramaphosa’s State of the Nation Address echoes across the nation, the Government Communication and Information System (GCIS) will be hosting a number of live broadcasts of the speech.
The live broadcasts, which take place at a venue within a community, aim to mobilise South Africans to watch the address, as well as give citizens an opportunity to actively engage in their own development.
At some of the viewing sites, there will be community dialogues as well as participation from local leadership as part of the build-up to the delivery of the President’s address.
The President will deliver the SONA to a joint sitting of the two Houses of Parliament, the National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces, at 7pm, on Thursday.
The live viewing events will take place in the following municipalities:
