President takes Imbizo to Ekurhuleni

Residents of Ekurhuleni will have an opportunity to engage President Cyril Ramaphosa on the pressing matter of service delivery during the upcoming Presidential Imbizo. The President will lead government's interaction with communities and stakeholders in Tsakane Township in Gauteng on 11 April 2024 as part of the District Development Model Presidential Imbizo. This visit will also allow the President and other leaders in government to assess progress made by government initiatives. Themed "Leave No One Behind', the Presidential Imbizo promotes participatory democracy and inclusive development by allowing community members and stakeholders to voice proposals and express any concerns or dissatisfaction they may have about conditions in the district or province. The Imbizo is directed at enabling successful implementation of the 'One District, One Plan' District Development Model in which residents, traditional leaders, business formations, organised labour and faith- and community-based organisations work with government across all phases of planning, implementation, and evaluation. Government Ministers, MECs and the Mayors in the Ekurhuleni municipality are expected to conduct several community outreach activities ahead of the Presidential Imbizo.
