South Africa's ANC Seeks Broad Coalition After Losing Majority

President Ramaphosa calls for a government of national unity to address pressing issues and maintain political stability.

The ANC lost its majority for the first time since the end of apartheid, securing only 40% of the vote.
Ramaphosa announced plans to form a coalition with multiple parties, including the DA, EFF, and others.
Negotiations are ongoing, with some parties setting conditions for their support, such as leadership changes.
The ANC aims to address economic growth, job creation, and corruption through the proposed coalition.
Challenges include ideological differences among parties and internal dissent within the ANC.
