South Africans will be eagerly awaiting tomorrow’s presidential inauguration, as vibrant entertainment will be expected.

There will be a lot of activity and arrivals of some of the guests will begin early in the morning.

Preparations are said to be going smoothly and many are hoping hat the ceremony goes off without a hitch, especially since it’s been reported that the weather might not play along.

Acting Director General of the Presidency, Trevor Fowler, said they have plans in place, in case of downpours.

“We had to anticipate that there would be a possibility of rain and what has been done is that umbrellas have been secured to make sure that people are comfortable.”

Fowler added that blankets will also be available if it is cold.
