South Africa's President Seeks National Unity Government

South Africa's ruling party, the African National Congress (ANC), is seeking a broad alliance after failing to win enough seats in the recent general election. The ANC won just over 40% of the vote and 158 seats in the National Assembly, falling short of an outright majority for the first time. President Cyril Ramaphosa has announced that his party will seek a government of national unity, citing the need to reflect the will of voters and move the country forward.
