SONA 2022

President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered the 2022 State of the Nation Address (SONA) under the theme “Following up on our commitments: making your future work better”. The SONA was moved to the Cape Town City Hall due to a fire at Parliament. It was the first time the SONA took outside the precinct of Parliament since democracy. Here are some highlights from the day.
