President Cyril Ramaphosa has described this past weekends cabinet lekgotla as wonderful and fruitful.
Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of National Treasurys climate symposium on Monday, Ramaphosa said everyone who attended the lekgotla felt that it was the very best cabinet lekgotla and the very best strategy section.
There was great synergy, there was no dissenting voice. On the issues discussed we found we had common purpose, we were unified in our message, in our intent, in our commitment to take South Africa forward.
The statement of intent is the glue that holds us all together, he said.
The constitution is the overarching view and we all subscribed to its values, its principles. We combined around that and started plotting what needs to be done to advance the lives of the people of South Africa in accordance with the priorities set out in the statement of intent.
