RURAL TSWAING LOCAL MUNICIPALITY POISED TO GAIN ESSENTIAL SERVICES THROUGH THUNTSHA LEROLE

Mahikeng – Premier Kagiso Lazarus Mokgosi will on Friday, 03 October 2025 lead the roll-out
of Thuntsha Lerole programme in Tswaing Local Municipality which falls under Ngaka Modiri
Molema District. Identified as one of the ten local municipalities prioritised for implementation
of phase 5 of the provincial government’s Accelerated Service Delivery Programme –
Thuntsha Lerole, Tswaing Local Municipality is experiencing several service delivery
challenges including inconsistent water supply and poor state of roads infrastructure.

Through a coordinated effort to enhance access to quality services, Premier Mokgosi who will
be joined by Members of Executive Council, will officially hand over an internal road in
Matshelapad. As an ongoing endeavor to improve the state of local road infrastructure,
potholes patching will be undertaken from Delareyville to Ottosdal, while blading will be
conducted in identified internal roads across the local municipality.

As part of the Title Deeds Friday campaign, a nationwide title deeds restoration programme,
Premier Mokgosi will symbolically issue 10 out of the available 1 282 title deeds to the rightful
owners, while three completed RDP houses will be handed over to the identified beneficiaries.
The provincial leadership will also undertake an oversight visit to the new Delareyville Bulk
Pharmacy construction site, which once completed, will not only strengthen medicine supply
across the local municipality and neighboring health facilities, but will also improve availability
and equitable healthcare delivery.

As part of the day’s programme, fresh produce will be handed over to indigent families in
Matshelapad, Jachtkraal, and Skierlik, while 105 food parcels will be distributed to households
in Thawane village. In support of youth development, sports equipment will be issued to nine
identified schools, while traditional attire will be presented to Agisanang Traditional Group.

To enhance access to economic opportunities, the Centralised Supplier Database (CSD) team
will be available on-site to assist with the registration, updating, and amendment of company
profiles. In addition, integrated primary health care services will be offered to ensure that
community members receive vital health screenings and support. In support of the Clean
Cities initiative, the clearing of illegal dumping sites will also be undertaken across the local
municipality.

The Accelerated Service Delivery Programme – Thuntsha Lerole Reloaded programme will
also be rolled out in two other districts as follows:
In Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati District the programme will be rolled out at Greater Taung
Local Municipality – Pitsong Community Hall in Taung, while in Dr Kenneth Kaunda District,
