Build One South Africa (BOSA) has recently called for a national convention with President Cyril Ramaphosa. This call is supported by leaders of the foundations formed in the names of Thabo Mbeki, Ahmed Kathrada, and Desmond and Leah Tutu, among others.
These leaders are expected to call for a national dialogue aimed at addressing critical issues and fostering engagement between citizens and the government.
BOSA leader Musi Maimane emphasized the necessity for parties to come together and articulate a comprehensive plan for the future of the country.

According to Maimane, “I asked the president to convene a meeting with all 18 party leaders because when you foreground the seventh administration with a plan that is tangible, that articulates what needs to be done, then and only then, can you say, okay, here is the cabinet that will drive those things.”
Maimane also expressed concerns about the current political landscape, suggesting that the appointment of positions seems to be happening for the sake of positions rather than for strategic governance.
He pointed out that there appears to be a deal between the African National Congress (ANC) and the Democratic Alliance (DA) based on the distribution of roles rather than on a unified vision for the country.
