There has been speculation that President Cyril Ramaphosa would use his State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Thursday to announce the election date.

“As you know, there has to be an allowance of 90 days to finalise preparation between the time the date is proclaimed and the actual date of elections, so there is no delay because there was never an agreed timeline as to when he will announce the date,” said Magwenya.
