The countdown to the upcoming local government elections on 4 November 2026 has officially

commenced, marking a critical milestone in our democratic journey. With the current municipal council

term set to expire on 1 November 2026, comprehensive preparations are already underway for the

elections scheduled for 4 November 2026. The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) is actively

engaged in initiatives to ensure that all eligible South Africans have the opportunity to participate in this

fundamental civic duty.

As part of its commitment, the IEC is dedicated to informing and educating citizens about the electoral

process, empowering them with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions at the polls. This

includes robust efforts to facilitate voter registration, ensuring that everyone eligible can easily cast their

vote, including those with physical infirmity and persons with disabilities,.

In today's discussions, we will collaborate with representatives from the IEC to delve into the specifics of

the Special Votes initiative planned for the upcoming elections. This process aims to provide additional

opportunities for those who may face challenges voting on the official election day, ensuring that every

voice is heard in our democracy.

Today we're joined by Bianca van Wyk, author, prayer warrior and self-publisher, who achieved an incredible milestone by publishing four books in just 14 months. Her writing explores faith, identity, healing, prayer and what it means to hold onto God through some of life’s most difficult seasons. She has also recently extended that message to children with a Kids Edition of Biblical Truths of Who I Am.

Co-parenting can test every bit of your patience.

Different opinions.

Different households.

Different approaches.

And sometimes, old hurts that haven’t completely healed.

But your child shouldn’t have to carry the weight of adult conflict.

Choose grace where you can.

Choose communication over confrontation.

Choose your child’s wellbeing over being right.

Because sometimes being the bigger person is part of being a better dad.
