Cyril Ramaphosa was re-elected as South Africa's president on Friday with the support of once rival parties that have agreed to join his African National Congress (ANC) in a new government of national unity. The ANC - which was forced to share power for the first time in 30 years after losing its majority in last month's vote - still has to work out how to divide up the top cabinet jobs and overcome ideological differences with its new partners. In this conversation, we talk about what should the immediate priorities of the President be after his inauguration as he leads the 7th administration? Lerato Mbele speaks to Professor Chris Landsberg, the Sarchi Chair In African Diplomacy & Foreign Policy and Director Of The Centre For African Diplomacy And Leadership at The University Of Johannesburg.
