The IFP gains a seasoned administrator as Dr Bongani Mncwango joins the party, signaling growth ambitions and strengthened leadership before the local elections

The MPs have written to Zuma and Yengeni to demand a forensic investigation of the missing millions

According to a source, she claimed that it was for party president Jacob Zuma

Shivambu’s Afrika Mayibuye Movement also accused Mcinga of spreading lies about the party’s leadership

This follows months of consultations with communities on whether there was a need to form another political party in South Africa

The new political movement is aiming to challenge established parties in KwaZulu-Natal in next year’s local government elections

The former speaker suggested there were no differences in how the party she has left and Jacob Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe were being run

The party alleged that fired secretary general Floyd Shivambu, who has now been expelled from MK, had left with a R28 million debt

Floyd Shivambu’s new political project masks its predatory character in the language of liberation

Shivambu closed the door on returning to the EFF, calling his former party a ‘cult’

The faction is opposed to those who joined from other parties, such as Floyd Shivambu, assuming strategic leadership positions in uMkhonto weSizwe party

The ANC Youth League president said he would rather EFF leader Julius Malema returned to the ANC than Shivambu, who he dismissed as having no support base

Sources said that despite Vuyo Zungula being a member of the African Transformation Movement’s national executive committee, he was not at the meeting that resolved to remove him as party president

Floyd Shivambu’s removal as secretary general points to the real issue – proximity to power

But there are fears that his tense relationship with senior party figures may limit his effectiveness in parliament

The EFF has removed two senior KwaZulu-Natal leaders after allegations of ghost branches, sabotage and defiance of Julius Malema’s directives

Taking control of the ANC would be part of uMkhonto weSizwe party’s ‘political project’ of unifying black people, the MK party’s head of presidency added

uMkhonto weSizwe members have accused leaders of double standards, saying Duduzile-Zuma Sambudla is being shielded from disciplinary action

Some members believe the chief whip is out of his depth, which has left the EFF’s Julius Malema dominating as the voice of the opposition

The secretary general spoke about a fortnight after MK leader Jacob Zuma’s daughter Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla had to apologise after insulting him on social media
