Government admits it can do more in GBV fight

President Cyril Ramaphosa says South African men who perpetrate violence against women and children should be ashamed of themselves.

The latest crime stats show over 800 women and 200 children were killed between April and June.

Ramaphosa blames this on the slow implementation of its National Strategic Plan.

He was speaking at the second Presidential Summit on Gender-Based Violence and Femicide in Midrand.

Close to 2000 Activists, NGO’s and survivors of gender-based violence have gathered in Midrand.

It’s been four years since the first GBVF presidential summit.

Delegates are demanding answers on what the government has done to end the scourge- if anything at all.

Ramaphosa says men need to take responsibility to bring an end to the violence but admits that the government has not been playing its part.

The summit concludes on Wednesday.
