The article discusses the reactions of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and the newly formed uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party to President Cyril Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address (SONA).

EFF leader Julius Malema accused Ramaphosa of repeating old promises without addressing critical issues like unemployment, poverty, and inequality. Similarly, MK Party's spokesperson, Nhlamulo Ndhlela, described the SONA as a "wish list" that did not offer concrete solutions or timelines for implementation. They highlighted the government's failure to deliver on previous commitments, suggesting that Ramaphosa's address was more about maintaining political rhetoric than effecting real change.
