Humza Yousaf was named as Nicola Sturgeon's successor on Monday, March 27 - making him the first person from an ethnic minority background to lead Scotland.
The race was well underway since Sturgeon announced she'd be stepping down as the leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) and First Minister of Scotland back in February.
There were three candidates who threw their hat in the ring - Yousaf, Kate Forbes and Ash Regan - but it was the former Health Secretary who came out on top.
