KEY SERVICE DELIVERY ISSUES RAISED DURING 2026/2027 IDP AND BUDGET ENGAGEMENT IN WARD 19

In line with the principles of participatory democracy as outlined in the Municipal Systems Act 32 of 2000 and the Municipal Finance Management Act 56 of 2003, the Elias Motsoaledi Local Municipality, together with the Sekhukhune District Municipality, convened a Joint Draft 2026/2027 Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and Budget public participation meeting at Dindela Sports Ground in Ward 19. The engagement aimed to ensure that community voices directly inform municipal planning, prioritisation, and service delivery for the upcoming financial year.

The session was led by Councillor Ndumiso Ndlovu, representing the Mayor of the Elias Motsoaledi Local Municipality, together with Councillor Carpos Ngobeni, who jointly presented the Draft 2026/2027 IDP and Budget to the community. The presentation outlined key municipal priorities, development programmes, and budget allocations for the upcoming financial year, while also providing a platform for community input and engagement.

During the engagement, residents actively contributed inputs to the draft IDP and Budget, raising a range of pressing service delivery challenges. These included persistent water supply challenges, with a strong call for the strengthening of bulk water infrastructure between Groblersdal and Luckau. Electricity infrastructure challenges were also highlighted, alongside poor road conditions and inadequate maintenance, which continue to affect mobility and access within the community. Residents further raised concerns regarding the slow delivery of RDP housing, as well as ongoing sanitation challenges, particularly the maintenance and draining of VIP toilets, which remain a significant concern for households in the area.

These community inputs will be consolidated and considered in the finalisation of the 2026/2027 IDP and Budget. The municipalities reaffirmed their commitment to ensuring that public participation remains central to planning processes and that service delivery priorities reflect the lived realities of communities.

The Elias Motsoaledi Local Municipality and the Sekhukhune District Municipality remain committed to strengthening participatory governance and improving service delivery outcomes through responsive and inclusive planning.

Tafelkop Project Receives High-Level Government Visit Focused on Rural Development

The Mayor of the Elias Motsoaledi Local Municipality, Cllr David Tladi, together with the Executive Mayor of the Sekhukhune District Municipality, Cllr Mina Bahula, welcomed the Premier of Limpopo, Phophi Ramathuba.

They were joined by the MEC for the Limpopo Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Ms Nakedi Kekana; the Speaker of Council, Cllr Jounior Thethe; Cllr A. Matlala; and Kgoši Rammupudu Rammupudu II, whose leadership continues to play a vital role in supporting community development and local agricultural initiatives.

The delegation visited the Tafelkop Agricultural Development Project as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen land reform initiatives and support emerging farmers across the province.

The Tafelkop Farmers Association, comprising 30 farmers, has been farming a 189-hectare (ha) property for over 25 years. The association was recently awarded official title deeds by President Cyril Ramaphosa, marking a major milestone in South Africa’s land reform and rural development efforts.

This transfer of ownership represents a turning point for the farmers, providing long-term tenure security and enabling greater investment in infrastructure, irrigation, livestock, and crop production.

During the visit, Premier Ramathuba engaged directly with farmers, encouraging unity and collaboration. She stated, “When farmers work together, they become stronger, more resilient, and better positioned to grow their businesses and uplift their communities.” She added, “Agriculture remains one of the key economic backbones of Limpopo, and we are committed to supporting farmers to ensure sustainable growth and food security.”

The programme concluded with a site visit to one of the farmers, where the delegation observed farming activities and discussed opportunities to further enhance productivity and growth.
