South Africa's ANC Faces Crisis as Calls for Ramaphosa's Resignation Grow

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has urged political parties to find common ground and form the country's first national coalition government after no party secured a majority in the recent election. The African National Congress (ANC) received 40% of the votes, losing its 30-year majority, and must now negotiate with other parties to co-govern. The Democratic Alliance (DA) is seen as a stable coalition partner, but talks are ongoing with multiple parties amid objections and complaints about voting irregularities. Ramaphosa seeks a second term, and the new Parliament must elect a president within 14 days of the election results.
