South African President Cyril Ramaphosa's African National Congress party received its worst election result since apartheid, barely passing 40% of the vote compared to 57.5% in 2019, posing a threat to his leadership. Ramaphosa, known for his negotiation skills, will need to forge alliances to maintain power, with the possibility of conceding to parties he didn't beat in the election. Despite facing challenges including corruption allegations and an economic crisis, the lack of a strong successor within the ANC may keep him in power, with the Democratic Alliance potentially being a key coalition partner for his survival.
