November 05, 2025

DESPITE a string of recent violent crimes in the province, Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has declared it ready and prepared to host the G20 Leaders' Summit.

- SIYABONGA SITHOLE

Lesufi addressed the media on the province's state of readiness for the two-day summit, which kicks off at the Nasrec Expo Centre on November 22 and 23.

The much-anticipated gathering, which will be held under the theme "Solidarity, Equality, Sustainability", is expected to host no less than 20 heads of state and other prominent travellers.

Lesufi sent a strong warning to criminals who are planning to disrupt the gathering, saying they will regret their decision as his administration has a comprehensive plan to deal with them.

Lesufi said enough measures have been taken to improve certain areas of concern to ensure a crime-free and safer province for international travellers to return to South Africa beyond the summit.
