'Made all the right points', 'just more rhetoric': Political parties weigh in on Ramaphosa's speech
President Cyril Ramaphosa, in his acceptance speech, called on political parties to stop"bickering" and work together for the"aspirations" of South Africans. Political party leaders gave the speech mixed reviews.
Moments after Ramaphosa was sworn in as president, he took to the podium and addressed South Africans in what has been described as a sincere and humble speech. Political party leaders who spoke to News24 said Ramaphosa's humble delivery symbolised the ANC's vulnerability after its poor showing at the 2024 polls, but it offered nothing new.
