EFF wants water shortages, unemployment addressed during FS Sopa

As Free State municipalities face a water and electricity crisis, all eyes will be on Free State Premier, Ace Magashule, who will deliver his State of the Province Address (SOPA) in Bloemfontein today. The speech is expected to set the tone for provincial departments in the new financial year and the upcoming elections.

Chairperson of the EFF in the Free State, Kgotso Morapela, says a dedicated plan must be announced on how the provincial government plans to address water shortages in a number of municipalities. He says unemployment in the Free State is also a big problem.
