Minister Pule vows to end long Sassa queues and restore dignity

Sassa grants are not merely payments but poverty lifeline – Pule “Social grants are not merely payments; they are a lifeline to remove poverty from many households, the vulnerable, the child who depends on a grant, the grandmother who holds a household together, and the young person searching for dignity and work,” the minister said.

The agency launched a social grant review process in 2025 to confirm beneficiaries’ continued eligibility, but it was met with some panic.

The newly appointed Minister of Social Development, Dina Pule, has vowed to end long queues and restore dignity to Sassa beneficiaries, announcing reviews, digital updates and 1000 new workers to improve service.
