The DA has formed a coalition negotiat-ing team, which includes former party leaders Helen Zille and Tony Leon. According to News24, several sources in the DA say the party is exploring forming […]
President, Nangolo Mbumba congratulated South Africa for the peaceful conduct of their recent national elections, highlighting the importance of maintaining order during such processes.

Elsie Nghikembua, Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, also lauded South Africa's electoral process and noted valuable lessons for Namibia's upcoming elections, […]
ActionSA says it notes DA leader John Steenhuisen’s announcement, which confirms plans to negotiate a potential coalition with the ANC. ActionSA national chairperson, Michael Beaumont, says the party may well have to ready itself to be the unofficial opposition in Parliament:
By Bhaso Ndzendze, University of Johannesburg After South Africa’s 29 May election, the African National Congress has lost the electoral majority it held for 30 years, but remains the party with the highest number of seats in parliament.
