President Jacob Zuma on Tuesday attended the naming of the Smart ID Card Printing Machines at the Government Printing Works in Pretoria.

Zuma also received his Smart ID Card from Minister of Home Affairs, Naledi Pandor. 

The four Smart ID card printing machines were named after struggle veterans Sophie De Bruyn, Lillian Ngoyi, Helen Joseph and Rahima Moosa. 

Zuma said the process of changing over to the new card will take longer to complete. 

Zuma said the new ID Smart card will have biometric and other features that will enable individuals to prove their unique identity with hundred percent certainty.
He added that this will enable government and businesses to deliver services that are more secured and efficient.
