President Cyril Ramaphosa says the 2024 National and Provincial Election results reflect the will of the people.
Ramaphosa said this during his address at the Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) results centre in Midrand, on Sunday, 2 June.
Despite objections from various political parties, the IEC declared the 2024 polls as free and fair. The Commission also announced the the number of seats allocated to parties in the nine legislatures and the National Assembly.
During his address, Ramaphosa thanked South Africans for coming out in numbers to cast their vote.
“You are the most important people who have demonstrated that yes, we can have a democracy and you have given further life to the democracy that we now have over the 30 year period,” he said.
Ramaphosa also called on other parties to put South Africa first.
“This is the time for all of us to put South Africa first. The people of this country expect and deserve no less,” he added.
