Updated | By Anastasi Mokgobu
The
Democratic Alliance says on Friday it's all systems go for the party's election
manifesto launch in Pretoria.

The party will hold its manifesto launch at the Union Buildings on Saturday, starting with a march from Church Square.
The launch comes ahead of the 2024 national and provincial elections, scheduled to take place later this year.
Party leader John Steenhuisen's address is expected to outline the party’s blueprint for a better South Africa.
DA federal chairperson Ivan Meyer said the manifesto will highlight the party's transformative potential.
"This occasion transcends the boundaries of a mere event; it marks a movement of significant proportions, with the largest mobilisation effort in the history of the DA.
"Tens of thousands of DA supporters from every corner of South Africa will participate in the march from Church Square to the Union Buildings, showcasing an unprecedented level of enthusiasm.
"Notably, this broad-based support extends beyond our traditional strongholds, reflecting a groundswell of commitment from all regions of our nation," said Meyer.
Meyer decribed the official opposition party's manifesto is more than a series of promises.
"It is a meticulously researched, data-driven plan addressing the current crises facing our nation. From tackling wasteful spending to addressing the electricity crisis, investing in education, and fostering economic growth, our manifesto outlines practical solutions.
"This march to the Union Buildings holds symbolic importance, signifying our determination to usher in a new era of governance, bidding farewell to stagnation. The DA is poised to lead, prioritising the welfare of the people."
Meyer again urged President Cyril Ramaphosa to announce an election date, saying the ANC has an unfair advantage by withholding the date of the polls.
