Politicians have reacted to President Cyril Ramaphosa’s state of the nation address (Sona) on Thursday.

Ramaphosa delivered his fourth Sona in parliament, more than an hour after he was set to begin, after repeated disruptions from the EFF.

In his speech, Ramaphosa addressed the country's embattled state-owned entities, such as Eskom, unemployment and gender-based violence.

Among other things, he also promised to improve governance, strengthen leadership and restore stability in strategic entities.

This is what they had to say:
