Cyril Ramaphosa says he is bringing reforms but the opposition insists he must do more to end corruption.
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa is marking 100 days in office. He came to power after Jacob Zuma was forced to resign after years of corruption allegations.
Ramaphosa was elected by parliament in February following his victory as leader of the ruling African National Congress party in December.
He made a number of promises and commitments during his first State of the Nation address, including improving the economy and fighting corruption.
