While Ramaphosa was concerned over possible threats to the elections, he said that the country’s law enforcement agencies and security services have made extensive preparations to ensure that these elections are peaceful and that all South Africans can freely exercise their right to vote. “We thank them for their professionalism, their dedication and their vigilance. Over the course of the last few months, many different parties and candidates have vigorously and enthusiastically campaigned for votes. While the contestation has been robust and has, at times, become heated, campaigning has been peaceful and free of intimidation.” he said.

“We should all be concerned at reports that came out today about the obstruction of election activities, including unlawful entry at IEC storage sites in KwaZulu-Natal” Ramaphosa said, calling on parties, candidates, supporters and every South African to refrain from any action that could interfere with the due electoral process.
