Bongani Bingwa speaks to presidential spokesperson Vincent Magwenya, as President Cyril Ramaphosa calls for sweeping reforms at the United Nations. With South Africa chairing the G20 and heading into the 80th UN General Assembly, Ramaphosa says the UN is no longer fit for purpose — warning that outdated structures, veto power, and narrow national interests are blocking global progress on peace, climate action, poverty, and human rights. His sharpest criticism is aimed at the UN Security Council, where the same five permanent members still dominate decision-making. Ramaphosa argues it’s time for the Global South to have a real seat at the table.
