Excitement builds as guests gather for President Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address. Learn about the key events and notable figures present.
Guests arrive as President Cyril Ramaphosa prepares to deliver the State of the Nation Address (SONA) for 2024. Steyn Speed, leading the drafting team, coordinates with 14 individuals over months to craft the perfect SONA. The event features ceremonial activities like a 21-gun salute and the national anthem. Despite the EFF leaders' court loss, Ramaphosa will speak at his eighth and final SONA under the sixth administration. EFF MPs boycott the event after failing to overturn their suspension in court, adding a political twist. The address is anticipated to include crucial announcements and promises from Ramaphosa. Campaign rhetoric is expected as citizens await a significant message from the President. The SONA reflects both hope and challenges, capturing the essence of the current political landscape. Ramaphosa's calm delivery without disruptions marks a notable conclusion to his SONA under the existing administration.
