In a recent address, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa emphasized the importance of unity and human rights, urging the nation to reject divisive politics. Speaking at an event commemorating Human Rights Day, Ramaphosa highlighted the historical significance of the Sharpeville massacre, where 69 people were killed by police in 1960, as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for human rights. He stressed that despite the progress made since the end of apartheid, South Africa still faces challenges like poverty, inequality, and unemployment, which require a united front to address effectively. Ramaphosa called for a recommitment to the values enshrined in the country's constitution, promoting inclusivity and condemning any form of discrimination or division. He also acknowledged the global context, mentioning conflicts like the war in Ukraine, to illustrate how division can lead to broader human rights violations, reinforcing his message of fostering peace and unity both nationally and internationally.
