President Cyril Ramaphosa has stepped in as chairman of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) with immediate effect. This follows the incumbent Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina fleeing his country after weeks of protests, which created a leadership vacuum in the regional body. During a virtual extraordinary SADC summit, Ramaphosa pledged the organization's commitment to peace, stability, and prosperity to foster socio-economic development.
