Mahikeng – The North West Provincial Government will this week implement its
Accelerated Service Delivery Programme – Thuntsha Lerole, at Marikana, Rustenburg
Local Municipality, this as part of its ongoing commitment to fast-track service delivery and
bring government services closer to communities. The roll-out of the programme will take
place on Friday, 06 March 2026, at Braampie Sports Ground.
As part of the day’s programme, the provincial government will officially open the
Tshukudu Library in Ward 45 and hand over four completed RDP houses to beneficiaries
in Thekwane.
In addition, two houses will be handed over to qualifying beneficiaries in Bokamoso,
thereby reaffirming government’s commitment to expanding access to essential services
and restoring dignity to communities through the provision of houses.
As the Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) vaccination campaign gets underway, government
will launch a targeted outreach programme in Middelkraal, where livestock vaccinations
will be administered alongside an information session for farmers at the MDA Agrihub.
The initiative forms part of broader efforts to accelerate the vaccine rollout, enhance
coordination of funding, and strengthen support to farmers in safeguarding animal health
and protecting the agricultural economy.
A total of two hundred (200) sanitary towels will be handed over to learners at Areaganeng
Secondary School, while school shoes will be distributed to learners from destitute
families at Marikana Primary and Kroondal Primary Schools.
In addition, food parcels will be delivered to vulnerable households in Wards 32 and 33,
this as part of the provincial government’s continued efforts to support indigent families
and promote learner wellbeing.
Tree-planting sessions will take place at Masakhane Home-Based Care and at the newly
handed-over RDP houses to promote environmental sustainability.
Led by Premier Lazarus Kagiso Mokgosi, alongside MECs, Mayors and Traditional
leaders, the programme forms part of the province’s commitment to 2026 as the “Year of
Decisive Action,” focused on strengthening local government.
