South Africa (primediaplus) – ‘This was a shot in the dark’ – EWN political editor Tshidi Madia on Jabulani Khumalo’s bid to unseat Zuma.
The former interim leader of the uMkhonto weSizwe Party has not received a favourable response from the Electoral Commission after asking for the removal of Jacob Zuma as the face and president of MK.
Confirming receipt of the letter from Jabulani Khumalo, the IEC reiterated its stance that ‘it does not involve itself in internal affairs of political parties’.
The Commission also noted that it acts only on instruction of the registered leader of the party.
“In the present case, Mr Jacob Zuma is the registered leader of MK Party. This has been so since 10 April 2024.”
