# President Cyril Ramaphosa will launch the Station 5A Water Purification Plant at Rand Water’s Zuikerbosch facility in Vereeniging today. As Africa’s largest purification facility, operated by Rand Water under the Department of Water and Sanitation, the new plant boosts water security and supports Gauteng’s growing demand. The Presidency says this aligns with Ramaphosa’s 2025 SONA pledge to address water challenges and forms part of Rand Water’s long-term infrastructure and augmentation strategy.
