President Ramaphosa congratulates Joe Biden and Harris on election victory

President Cyril Ramaphosa congratulated US president-elect Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris on their victory.

“We congratulate President-Elect @JoeBiden and Vice President @KamalaHarris and the American people on your election,” Ramaphosa tweeted.

“We look forward to working with you and deepening our bonds of friendship and cooperation,” said the president, who is also the current chairman of the African Union.

The leaders of regional neighbours Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe have also tweeted congratulatory messages.

Nigeria’s leader Muhammadu Buhari also congratulated Biden on his election as US President, calling for “greater engagement with Africa”.

“Your election is a significant reminder that democracy is the best form of government because it offers the people the opportunity to change their government by peaceful means,” the leader of Africa’s most populous nation said in a statement.

“The most powerful group are not the politicians, but voters who can decide the fate of candidates for elective office at the polling booth.”
