The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), says it has reprioritised its resources to ensure comprehensive coverage of the 2026 Local Government Elections, despite ongoing financial constraints.

Group Chief Executive Officer Nomsa Chabeli says the public broadcaster has scaled back some of its regular programming to channel resources towards election-related content, and deploy teams across the country. 

Chabeli made these remarks while speaking to the SABC at the Election Results Operations Centre (ROC) in Midrand, north of the city of Johannesburg, on Tuesday.
