Nkangala District Municipality is made up of the following local municipalities: Delmas, Dr J.S. Moroka, Emalahleni, Emakhazeni, Steve Tshwete, and Thembisile. It is also responsible for the Mdala District Management Area. Nkangala was awarded the prestigious VUNA Award, as the best District Municipality in South Africa, during 2004, for municipal service excellence. Nkangala is at the economic hu

b of Mpumalanga and is rich in minerals and natural resources. The Districts economy is dominated by electricity, manufacturing and mining. These sectors are followed by community services, trade, finance, transport, agriculture and construction. The manufacturing sector in Middelburg is increasing at an average annual rate of 16, 3%, making it a major contributor to the provinces overall gross value added. Although, Steve Tshwete is the main contributor to agricultural activity, the sector is largely underdeveloped. Nkangala proposes to integrate employment creation with the stimulation of the agricultural sector. The major products are maize, livestock, chicken and vegetables (potatoes). A strength of the District is the Maputo Corridor, which brings increased potential for economic growth and tourism development. The proximity to Gauteng opens up opportunities to a larger market, which is of benefit to the Districts agricultural and manufacturing sectors. The further potential inherent in exporting goods, provides opportunities that need to be investigated. It is necessary to regenerate the economic systems, not only to assist the local economy, but also to help community leaders understand the structural changes that have occurred and continue to occur in their region. Active marketing to promote and brand businesses and industries, as well as creating an awareness of investment opportunities in Nkangala is in progress. Nkangala has developed a Growth and Development Summit Agreement with its partners in all sectors, committing them to its economic growth path of 6% by the year 2014.

📸🫱🏾‍🫲🏼Public-Private Partnership Enhances Disaster Response in Nkangala

Nkangala District Municipality has received a much-needed boost in its ability to respond to fires and emergencies, following the handover of firefighting equipment donated by Santam.

The donation forms part of Santam's Partnership for Risk and Resilience, an initiative through which the company has partnered with and supported 110 municipalities across South Africa to strengthen their capacity to manage risks and respond to disasters.

The equipment will help strengthen the District’s response to fires, including veldfires and fires in informal settlements, where quick and effective intervention can make a significant difference in protecting lives, homes and livelihoods.

The donation will benefit Emalahleni Local Municipality, Emakhazeni Local Municipality, Steve Tshwete Local Municipality and Victor Khanye Local Municipality, ensuring that firefighting resources reach communities across the district where they are needed most.

As part of the support, Nkangala District Municipality also handed over a set of Rescue Tools, commonly known as the “Jaws of Life,” to Emakhazeni Local Municipality. These tools will assist emergency response teams when dealing with incidents such as road crashes and other situations where people need to be safely rescued.

This partnership is a reminder of what can be achieved when government and the private sector work together towards a common goal, keeping our communities safer and strengthening the services available to those who need them most. Together, we are building a safer and more resilient Nkangala.

🍀 NKANGALA DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY COMMEMORATES ARBOR DAY 2026 🍀

Nkangala District Municipality in partnership with Emakhazeni Local Municipality, successfully commemorated Arbor Day through a Community Awareness and Tree Planting Campaign held on 04 September 2026, recognizing the theme: “Planting a tree today is investing in cleaner air, healthier communities and a resilient future."

🌱 The campaign started at Mphilonhle Primary School and Siyifunile Secondary School in Dullstroom, where learners planted trees and learned about clean air, biodiversity and environmental responsibility.

🌱 The programme continued at Sakhelwe Community Hall in Dullstroom, in Emakhazeni Local Municipality, with an awareness session on climate change, air quality, waste management, forestry, disaster management and fire & rescue services. 🚒🧯🔥

🌱 More than just planting trees, the event was about empowering communities to protect our natural resources and build sustainable livelihoods.
