South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has unveiled a new Cabinet comprising a coalition of 11 parties, following his ANC’s loss of parliamentary majority in recent elections. The ANC retains the largest share with 20 ministerial positions, while the Democratic Alliance (DA) and smaller parties also secured roles. This coalition marks a significant shift in South African politics, necessitated by voter dissatisfaction over poverty and inequality. Ramaphosa emphasized unity and tackling economic challenges as priorities.
