  CAPE TOWN - Political parties watched the President's speech closely on Thursday evening. Politicians shared their reactions to the address. DA leader John Steenhuisen welcomed "the president's focus on growth and jobs."

The article from eNCA discusses the reactions of various political parties to the State of the Nation Address (SONA) delivered by President Cyril Ramaphosa in 2025. The Democratic Alliance (DA) criticized the address for lacking concrete plans to address unemployment and economic recovery, calling it a "wish list" without actionable steps. The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) dismissed the SONA as a continuation of failed policies, emphasizing the need for radical economic transformation. The African National Congress (ANC) defended the speech, highlighting its focus on infrastructure development, energy security, and social welfare improvements. Smaller parties like the Freedom Front Plus and the African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) expressed skepticism about the government's ability to implement the promised reforms, pointing to past unfulfilled promises. Overall, the reactions reflect a broad spectrum of political ideologies and expectations, with a common thread of doubt regarding the feasibility and sincerity of the government's outlined plans.
