🕹️And to South Africa 🇿🇦 :
🚨Cyril Ramaphosa has been elected as South Africa’s next President.
🚨Although this has ended the country's political deadlock, it has opened a new chapter of rivalry between Ramaphosa and Jacob Zuma.
🚨Former president Zuma's uMkhonto we Sizwe party (MK) will join an alliance of smaller opposition parties in parliament in a bid to take on the African National Congress and Democratic Alliance-led coalition government.
🚨Earlier, the MK Party had boycotted the first sitting of the National Assembly on Friday after filing a complaint at the country's top court alleging vote-rigging.
🚨But now, the party says it will join the alliance called the "Progressive Caucus", which includes the Marxist Economic Freedom Fighters and the United Democratic Movement.
🚨As friends-turned-foes- Zuma and Ramaphosa appear at loggerheads, will this usher in a new era of South African politics? Watch our video to know more.
