There is a buzz in the air, online and between congested roads as preparations are underway for the eagerly anticipated State of Nation Address tonight.

Policy objectives and deliverables for the year ahead are expected to be addressed by Zuma in his speech at Parliament in Cape Town this evening.

Ahead of that, Bush radio correspondents are at parliament to keep us informed on what’s happening out and about in Parliament and what to expect for SONA 2015.

BushRadio’s news correspondent Mbasa Gqokoma said: “Today is the day South Africa has been looking forward to. Everything seems to be in order, the public is here, media institutions are here, and security officials deployed almost everywhere.”

Gqokoma said : "Everyone seems to be excited about tonight’s proceeding."
 
"Everyone is patiently waiting for the ministers, visitors, dignitaries and mostly the arrival of the president Jacob Zuma." Gqokoma added.
