South Africa's President Seeks National Unity Government

ai generated text

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.

    2. Such a national dialogue will enhance the pressing task of rebuilding social cohesion in a fractured society, following a particularly toxic and divisive election campaign.
    3. This moment also calls for multiparty cooperation and multi-stakeholder collaboration if we are to overcome the severe challenges that confront our country.
    4. This moment calls for the broadest unity of the people of South Africa.
    5. In establishing a GNU, we are building on a very rich history of cooperation across divides and ideologies.
