Ramaphosa and DA leader John Steenhuisen are said to have ironed out their issues during a meeting on Friday, with negotiations reportedly being finalised soon.


IFP president, Velenkosini Hlabisa, says the country is eager to move forward.


“The work of governance must begin; we cannot remain in a pattern where there is so much to be done. It is essential that the president, as the constitution allows him, be able to reach the stage of announcing the new cabinet.”
