NORTHERN Cape Premier Dr Zamani Saul is leading a two-day provincial interfaith summit at the Full Gospel Church in Jan de Klerk Road, Upington from August 11-12.

The spokesperson for the Office of the Premier, Bronwyn Thomas-Abrahams, said that 200 faith-based leaders would be consulted in developing long-term and effective resolutions to combat tuberculosis (TB), HIV/Aids and sexually-transmitted diseases.

“The summit is also a response to the call for collaboration made by Deputy President David Mabuza to the religious sector earlier this year, as part of the national World TB Day that was held in Barkly West,” said Thomas-Abrahams.

She added that the South African National Aids Council (Sanac), the interfaith community and the Moral Regeneration Movement in the Province would also participate in the summit.
