SONA 2019

Naledi Chirwa's maiden address in Parliament stole South Africa's hearts, something that a first-time speaker seldom manages to achieve so early in the game.

President Cyril Ramaphosa says that there are no quick, easy fixes for South Africa, contexulising his State of the Nation Address as a plan for the next five years and beyond.

While speaking to a journalist after the SONA on Thursday night, Malema hilariously dealt with a "Louis Vuitton" jab directed at him. A clip of the incident was posted online and left Mzansi in stitches.

Former President Jacob Zuma did not attend the SONA this year and Mzansi noticed. Social media users were quick to comment on his absence as they wondered where he was and what he was doing instead.

President Cyril Ramaphosa urged South Africans to support Mzansi businesses by buying locally. He practiced what he preached and revealed that his entire outfit was locally-made.

Ramaphosa has announced that that data costs must come down and Mzansi is loving it. Speaking at the SONA 2019, the president said that they will issue policy direction for ICASA within the next month to begin the process.
