Seepe says over the years, SONAs under the ANC government have lost meaning with the latest one being more challenging because of the GNU.
President Cyril Ramaphosa at the Pre-Cabinet Lekgotla Photo Opportunity at Sefako Makgatho Presidential Guesthouse on July 13, 2024 in Pretoria, South Africa. The first cabinet of the Government of National Unity will take place from 13th July to 14 July 2024.
Ramaphosa is expected to deliver the SONA on 18 July 2024. This is the first SONA under the government of national unity and in the seventh administration. “I do not see Ramaphosa giving us anything. The only difference will be who he decides to quote. This is Mandela month, there will be a lot of Mandela in the speech,” he said.Seepe said over the last 30 years, South Africa had failed to address the challenges of inequality, poverty, and unemployment. He blamed the ANC for failing to address these.“Those issues that the ANC put on the table they failed to deliver on them when they had an outright majority.
According to Seepe, the ANC had lost some will to implement some of their policies which have been taken at conferences over the years.
