Cyril Ramaphosa's spokesperson Vincent Mangwenya says the president remains firmly focused on finding solutions to resolving the myriad of challenges facing the country.
Magwenya shared these remarks during a media briefing on Sunday.
The EFF and African Transformation Movement leader Vuyo Zungula were forcibly removed from Cape Town City Hall during Thursday evening's State of the Nation Address.
Magwenya says the disruptive conduct of EFF MPs is a matter for Parliament to address through its rules and processes.
“President Ramaphosa retained his composure throughout the evening. The energetic and focused manner in which he delivered his state of the nation address showed a President who remains resolute on the task of resolving the myriad of challenges facing the country and importantly, who remains accountable to the nation for the work of his administration.
“The disruptive scenes led by the EFF in parliament have become an unfortunate and disturbing permanent feature of the SONA and other parliamentary activities such as the Presidency budget vote speech.
Magwenya further highlighted that is the state visit of President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of the Republic of Uganda on the 28th of February.
“President Ramaphosa will host President Museveni with the aim of strengthening political, economic, and cultural relations between South Africa and the Republic of Uganda.
“South Africa and Uganda enjoy longstanding historical relations dating back to the struggle against apartheid. Uganda hosted and trained South African anti-apartheid activists and freedom fighters in the late 1980s
