MKP NATIONAL OFFICIALS OF UMKHONTO WESIZWE PARTY REGARDING PRONOUNCEMENTS BY THE MK INSTITUTE
BY : CHANON LECODEY MERRICKS ONLINE EDITOR KASiBC_AFRiCA
The National Officials of uMkhonto weSizwe Party, led by the President and Commander General, His Excellency Cde Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, met today, Monday 18th of May 2026, to reflect on various matters affecting the organisation internally and externally.
The National Officials reflected on the media statement issued by the MK Institute on the 16th of May 2026, where certain pronouncements were made regarding the leadership architecture of the MK Party, and also purported changes to the current Constitutional leadership dispensation in the party. More specifically, the announcement by the MK Institute implied that the MK Institute will assume full responsibility for the political management and administration of the organisation.
The media statement also made reference to the role of various National Officials, and purported the MK Institute to be having powers to change the role of National Officials. Overall, the MK Institute has suggested that all leadership structures of the party are now being subjected to and report to the Institute.
While the National Officials acknowledge that the media statement was read in the presence of the President and other National Officials of uMkhonto weSizwe Party on the 16th May 2026, the President and National Officials were not fully aware of the entirety of the statement until the statement was made public, and in particular the propositions dealing with the party’s leadership architecture. The National Officials therefore hereby declare proposition of changing party’s leadership structure by the MK Institute issued on the 16th of May 2026 null and void.
The media statement does not reflect the views and decisions of the national leadership of uMkhonto weSizwe Party. Members of The Institute have accepted guidance of National Officials, that the statement was necessarily beyond the powers of the entity and unconstitutional. The national leadership of uMkhonto weSizwe Party has decided to integrate the Institute into the broader organisational policy-making machinery reporting to the Secretary General. The National Officials further take this opportunity to announce the immediate appointment of a new National Spokesperson for uMkhonto weSizwe Party who is an academic and former news editor Cde Sifiso Mahlangu. Cde Sifiso Mahlangu is a highly experienced journalist and renowned media personality, and brings invaluable technical and professional insights to the party.
The national leadership of uMkhonto weSizwe Party urges the media fraternity, general public and members of uMkhonto weSizwe Party to provide Cde Sifiso Mahlangu with the usual and necessary support.
The National Officials also take this opportunity to thank Cde Nhlamulo Ndhlela, who held the fort as the inaugural National Spokesperson of the party, as he steps down from the role of Spokesperson both in the party and in parliament with immediate effect. His contribution in building uMkhonto weSizwe Party’s media and public footprint is highly appreciated.
