The parties negotiated and attempted to form a "Provincial Government of Unity" but negotiations ultimately collapsed in early\-July 2024 which led to Lesufi announcing his executive council comprising members of the [African National Congress](/wiki/African_National_Congress "African National Congress"), the [Patriotic Alliance](/wiki/Patriotic_Alliance "Patriotic Alliance"), the [Inkatha Freedom Party](/wiki/Inkatha_Freedom_Party "Inkatha Freedom Party"), the [Inkatha Freedom Party](/wiki/Inkatha_Freedom_Party "Inkatha Freedom Party"), and [Rise Mzansi](/wiki/Rise_Mzansi "Rise Mzansi") on 3 July 2024\. Lesufi said that he intends to lead a minority government, while the DA has said that it will take up its position as the official opposition again.
