South Africa officially has a government of national unity (GNU), with President Cyril Ramaphosa finally revealing his new Cabinet of ministers for the "seventh administration" after an almost hour-long delay on Sunday night.
Ramaphosa said 11 political parties have agreed to be part of the GNU in parliament.
These include the ANC, DA, Patriotic Alliance (PA), Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), Good Party, Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC), Freedom Front Plus (FF+), United Democratic Movement (UDM), AI Jama-ah, Rise Mzansi and the United Africans Transformation.
Ramaphosa affirmed Paul Mashatile as deputy president and appointed DA leader John Steenhuisen as the new minister of agriculture.
The DA secured 12 posts - six executive ministerial positions and six deputy minister posts.
Other parties securing ministerial posts include the Good Party, the IFP, FF+, PA, PAC, UDM and AI Jama-ah.
