The ANC-led government remains forever indebted to the people of South Africa for the continued support that they have shown over the years. We do not and we will never take their support for granted. We will always listen to and work with our people - especially those who still experience challenges of poverty, unemployment, inequality, gender-based violence, and other socioeconomic challenges - to find lasting solutions. As our hon President, Cyril Ramaphosa, said in the state of the nation address, as we celebrate our freedom, we must recall the hardships of our people and devote our collective efforts to continue improving their lives.
