The president has met with key stakeholders before announcing the plans government will put in place this week in order to step up the response against the spread of Covid-19.

Speaking at the Union Buildings at noon on Sunday, President Cyril Ramaphosa thanked political parties for their collective involvement in giving their input on the national response against the novel coronavirus, which causes Covid-19.

He gave an opportunity to various political leaders, including Cope leader Mosiuoa Lekota, to speak. Lekota said it was a time for patriotism. He said all the important feedback would feed into the president’s message to the nation “in due course, later”. “The ravages of coronavirus are going to be with us for a long time to come,” their representative said.“As South Africans we can be extremely confident and proud of our banking sector. We are very well positioned to … help with this crisis we are facing.” They recognised that banking played a very significant role in dealing with this crisis and were working tirelessly.

“These leaders will have an opportunity to outline the impact of the disaster on businesses and the economy at large, and engage recommendations to mitigate the impact of the outbreak on the economy at large,” said spokesperson Khusela Diko on Sunday morning.
