ActionSA Gauteng chairperson Funzi Ngobeni said the party looked to both the Democratic Alliance (DA) and the African National Congress (ANC) to bring stability to the province.
He made the comment following the re-election of Panyaza Lesufi as the state's Chief Minister.
Audrey Mospiyoye has been elected speaker of the Gauteng provincial legislature.
Ngobeni extended his best wishes to Lesufi.
“I congratulate them and their coalition, the DA and ANC coalition. I hope they will work together to bring stability to the province and make service delivery a priority. I hope they will source security guards and cleaners in-house. I hope they will focus on the urban centres of the nine municipalities in the province. I think the most important thing is the issue of crime. As ActionSA, we intend to be a constructive coalition.”

Meanwhile, Gauteng Democratic Alliance leader Solly Msimanga says the provincial government will find a way to work together for the people of the province.
Msimanga said each party must hold each other accountable.
“We have ultimately agreed to be part of a government of national unity and then a government of provincial unity, which means we are looking at ways to enable us to work together. The people of Gauteng, the people of South Africa have not given any of us the mandate to govern on our own. We are trying to find ways in which we can serve the people of Gauteng, the people of South Africa in the best way that we can. We will look at sharing positions but we will hold each other accountable.”
