What is SONA?

What is SONA?

State of Nation Address also known as SONA
Provides the president with an opportunity to speak to the nation on the general state of South Africa, to reflect on a wide range of political, economic and social matters with the domestic and global contexts, to account the nation on the work of government and to set out government’s program of action. The president makes key government announcements during this important sitting of Parliament. The president delivers his SONA before Parliament because Parliament is charged with ensuring that the work flowing from address is implemented.

SONA will be taking place at Parliament at 20th June 2019, addressed by our President Cyril Ramaphosa and Bush Radio will be covering the event. Listen to Bush Radio 89.5FM 20th June for expectations and 21st June for highlights in news and BACKCHAT at 2pm for a sit down with reactions of SONA.
