Putting people first was at the centre of Capricorn District Municipality’s (CDM) Batho Pele Awareness Campaign held at Ga-Makgato Community Hall in Ga-Makgato Village, under Blouberg Local Municipality, on Thursday, 29 October 2026.
The campaign provided an opportunity for residents to access information about government services, engage directly with service providers and learn more about their rights and responsibilities when accessing public services.
The programme brought together various stakeholders from government departments, parastatals and private institutions, strengthening collaboration and promoting a coordinated approach to service delivery.
The awareness campaign also formed part of the build-up activities towards the District Batho Pele Day, scheduled for November 2026.
Speaking on behalf of the community, Ward Councillor Ntlatla expressed appreciation to Capricorn District Municipality for bringing government services closer to residents and creating a platform for meaningful engagement.
Through initiatives such as these, CDM continued to champion the Batho Pele principles of putting people first, promoting accessible and responsive services, accountability, transparency and improved service delivery.
Putting People First is not just a principle; it is a commitment to serving communities with dignity, respect and accountability.
