Ni\u00ebl Terblanch\u00e9
\nAFTER being elected unopposed as President of the sixth Parliament and being sworn-in a few days ago, Cyril Matamela Ramaphosa took the oath to serve as the President of the Republic of South Africa during an impressive inauguration ceremony that was attended by thousands of people.
\nPresident Hage Geingob and Chairperson of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) attended the inauguration ceremony of President Cyril Ramaphosa in the city of Tshwane earlier today.
\nDuring his inauguration address President Ramaphosa expressed appreciation for the sacrifices made by the SADC, Africa and the International community to restore the dignity of South Africans and the establishment of a democratic and sovereign nation.<\/p>\n

President Ramaphosa\u2019s full speech during his inauguration reads as follows:<\/strong>
\nI stand before you having just taken the oath to be President of our beautiful country South Africa.
\nI am humbled by the trust you have bestowed upon me, aware of the challenges our country faces, but also alive to the fact that our people are filled with hope for a better tomorrow.
\nWe gather here on the day that the people of our continent celebrate the unity of Africa.
\nIt is a day of friendship, solidarity and cooperation.
\nIt is a day on which we reaffirm our common commitment to an Africa that is at peace, that is prosperous and that promises a better existence for its people.
\nAs South Africa, we are honoured and deeply humbled by the presence here of leaders from across the African continent.
\nWe are profoundly grateful to you for choosing to celebrate Africa Day among us, giving further poignancy to South Africa\u2019s transformation from a pariah state to a full and valued member of the family of African nations.
\nWe also recognise with appreciation those countries from other continents who have joined us today.
\nWe remain eternally grateful to all nations represented here for the sacrifices and tireless contributions by your people and governments to the liberation of our land.
\nToday, we reaffirm our determination to work with our sisters and brothers across the continent to realise the African Union\u2019s vision of Agenda 2063.
\nTo build the Africa that we all Africans want.
\nTo forge a free trade area that stretches from Cape Town to Cairo, bringing growth and opportunity all African countries.
\nTo silence the guns and let peace and harmony reign.
\nToday, we declare that our progress as South Africa depends on \u2013 and cannot be separated from \u2013 the onward march of our beloved continent Africa.
\nTwenty-five years have passed since that glorious morning on which Nelson Rolihahla Mandela was sworn in as the first President of a democratic South Africa.
\nIn the passage of that time, our land has known both seasons of plenty and times of scarcity.
\nOur people have felt the warm embrace of liberty.
\nThey have rejoiced at the affirmation of their essential and equal humanity.
\nThey have found shelter and sustenance.
\nThey have found opportunity and purpose.
\nAs the shackles of oppression have fallen away, they have felt their horizons widen and their lives improve in a myriad ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

But they have also known moments of doubt.
\nThey have felt the cold shadow of a past so cruel and iniquitous that it has at times threatened to eclipse the very achievement of their hard-won freedom.
\nDespite our most earnest efforts, many South Africans still go to bed hungry, many succumb to diseases that can be treated, many live lives of intolerable deprivation. Too many of our people do not work especially the youth.
\nIn recent times, our people have watched as some of those in whom they had invested their trust have surrendered to the temptation of power and riches.
\nThey have seen some of the very institutions of our democracy eroded and resources squandered.
\nThe challenges that we face are real.
\nBut they are not insurmountable.
\nThey can be solved. And we are going to solve them.
\nIn the face of all these challenges our people have remained resolute, resilient, unwavering in their desire for a better South Africa.
\nThrough the irrefutable power of the ballot on 8 May, South Africans declared the dawn of a new era.
\nThey have chosen hope over hopelessness, they have opted for unity over conflict and divisions.
\nAs we give effect to their mandate, we draw comfort from the knowledge that that which unites us is far, far more powerful and enduring than that which divides us.
\nDespite our differences, despite a past of conflict and division and bitterness, despite the fierce political contestation among 48 political parties in recent months, we share the same hopes and fears, the same anxieties and aspirations.
\nWe all want our children to have lives that are better than our own, to have work that is dignified and rewarding.
\nWe are bound together by our determination that never again shall the adversities of our past be visited on the people of this land.
\nThis is a defining moment for our young nation.
\nToday is the choice of history.
\nIt is a time for us to make the future we yearn for.
\nIt is through our actions now that we will determine our destiny.
\nSouth Africans want action and not just words and promises.
\nAnd there will be action.
\nIt is through our actions now that we will give form to the society for which so many have fought and sacrificed and for which all of us yearn.
\nAll South Africans yearn for a society defined by equality, by solidarity, by a shared humanity.
\nThey yearn for a society in which our worth is determined by how we value others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

It is a society guided by the fundamental human principle that says: Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu. Motho ke motho ka batho.
\nMuthu ndi muthu nga vhangwe vhathu.
\nMunhu yi munhu yi vanhu.
\nOur Constitution \u2013 the basic law of our land \u2013 continues to guide our way even at the darkest hour.<\/p>\n

As a nation we therefore can no longer abide the grave disparities of wealth and opportunity that have defined our past and which threaten to imperil our future.
\nIt is our shared will \u2013 and our shared responsibility \u2013 to build a society that knows neither privilege nor disadvantage.
\nIt is a society where those who have much are willing to share with those who have little.
\nIt is a society where every person, regardless of race or sex or circumstance, may experience the fundamental necessities of a decent, dignified life.
\nToday, let us declare before the esteemed witnesses gathered here that such a South Africa is possible.
\nLet us declare our shared determination that we shall end poverty in South Africa within a generation.
\nLet us declare that when we gather to celebrate the 50th year of our freedom there shall no longer be any person in this land who is unable to meet their basic needs.
\nThat there should be no child who goes hungry.
\nEvery school child will be able to read, and every person who wants to work will have a reasonable opportunity to find employment.
\nAs we make this bold declaration, we are aware of the depth of the challenges we must confront.
\nWe are aware of the debilitating legacy of our past, nor the many difficulties of the present.
\nTo achieve the South Africa we want will demand an extraordinary feat of human endeavour.
\nThe road ahead will be difficult.
\nWe will have to use our courage, wisdom and perseverance to achieve the South Africa we want.
\nIt will require an ambition that is rare.
\nLike our forebears who gathered so many years ago on a piece of veld in Kliptown to declare that the people shall govern, let us aspire to a future beyond the probable.
\nLet our reach extend beyond our grasp.
\nLet our gaze stretch beyond the horizon.
\nLet us \u2013 as we embark on this new era \u2013 mobilise our every resource and summon our every capability to realise the vision of our founding mothers and fathers.
\nLet us forge a compact \u2013 not merely as business and labour, not as those who govern and those who are governed \u2013 but as citizens and patriots of this great nation, free and equal and resolute.
\nLet us forge a compact for growth and economic opportunity, for productive lands and viable communities, for knowledge, for innovation, and for services that are affordable, accessible and sustainable.
\nLet us forge a compact for an efficient, capable and ethical state, a state that is free from corruption, for companies that generate social value and propel human development, for elected officials and public servants who faithfully serve no other cause than that of the public.
\nWe must be a society that values excellence, rewards effort and hard work and rejects mediocrity.
\nWe must be a society that values its young people by creating a conducive environment for them to gain skills and be productively employed to develop our country.
\nLet us celebrate the great strides we have made \u2013 demonstrated so clearly in the incoming Parliament \u2013 to raise the prominence and contribution of women in public life.
\nLet us work together to fundamentally, and forever, change the relations of power between men and women.
\nLet us end the dominion that men claim over women, the denial of opportunity, the abuse and the violence, the neglect, and the disregard of each person\u2019s equal rights.
\nLet us build a truly non-racial society, one that belongs to all South Africans, and in which all South Africans belong.
\nLet us build a society that protects and values those who are vulnerable and who for too long have been rendered marginal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A society where disability is no impediment, where there is tolerance, and where no person is judged on their sexual orientation, where no person suffers prejudice because of the colour of their skin, the language of their birth or their country of origin.
\nLet us preserve our natural resources for future generations, as we work with greater purpose to end the human destruction of our world.
\nOn this Africa Day, on the day that our nation enters a new era of hope and renewal, we recall and celebrate that Africa is the birthplace of humanity.
\nWe recall that it was around 100,000 years ago that a small group of some of the first humans set foot beyond the continent.
\nWith them they took a sense of perseverance and a talent for innovation which enabled them to progressively occupy every corner of the world.
\nHumanity has achieved a great deal over the intervening millennia and all by virtue of talents which evolved in Africa.
\nAfrica is poised once again to rise, to assume its place among the free and equal nations of the world. We must use that innovative talent that originated in Africa to embrace and use the fourth Industrial Revolution to develop Africa and create jobs for the youth and empower the women of our continent.
\nAfrica is poised to realise the vision of Pixley ka Isaka Seme more than a century ago, when he said:
\n\u201cThe brighter day is rising upon Africa.
\n\u201cAlready I seem to see her chains dissolved her desert plains red with harvest, her Abyssinia and her Zululand the seats of science and religion, reflecting the glory of the rising sun from the spires of their churches and universities.
\n\u201cHer Congo and her Gambia whitened with commerce, her crowded cities sending forth the hum of business, and all her sons [and daughters] employed in advancing the victories of peace \u2013 greater and more abiding than the spoils of war.\u201d
\nIt is to this brighter day that we now turn our eyes, to a vista rich with the hues of hope and promise.
\nIt is you, the people of South Africa, who have spoken.
\nWith your votes you have placed your confidence and your trust in the men and women who now sit in our sixth democratic Parliament.
\nThese 490 men and women whom you have sent to Parliament seem to have heard the same call that the Lord made to Isaiah when He said: \u201cWhom shall I send, and who will go for us?\u201d
\nThey have now said, send us. They have said Thuma Thina.
\nYou have chosen them to safeguard your rights, to improve your lives and to build a country that is united, strong and truly free.
\nYou, the people of South Africa, have sent them, and you have sent me, as your President.
\nHaving taken the oath of office I am saying yes, South Africa Thuma Mina.
\nAnd I pledge here today that I will serve you, I will work with you, side by side, to build the South Africa that we all want and deserve.
\nA new era has dawned in our country.
\nA brighter day is rising upon South Africa and upon our beloved continent, Africa.
\nNkosi Sikelel\u2019 iAfrika.<\/p>\n
