“Our economy was starved of the potential of its people. And that is why we needs to transform our economy and make it more inclusive. That is why our focus is on empowering black people, women and persons with disabilities because they were deliberately excluded from playing a key role in the economy of their own country,” he said.

The president expressed the need for caution in managing energy, despite the government's efforts to reduce load shedding. He emphasized the need for a complete energy system reform to ensure long-term energy security, despite the recent two-day return of load shedding.

He also spoke on the infrastructure, expanded agricultural markets, and water crisis which has projects underway, fighting crime, and corruption.

Ramaphosa also praised the SA National Defence Force's presence in the DRC peacekeeping mission, stating it strengthens the African Union (AU) for peace, development, and economic integration.
