Debating the state of the nation: South African MPs' claims about crime, education, service delivery and more scrutinised
In February 2023 South African parliamentarians debated the president’s state of the nation address (Sona).

Others praised the progress that had been made so far. Africa Check took a closer look at some of the claims made during the debate. Which MPs got their facts right?
