Former President Jacob Zuma’s New Party Joins Opposition to Challenge National Unity Government

 

Former President and Leader of the new uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party, Jacob Zuma, has said that his party will join forces with the Opposition Bloc in Parliament to thwart the plans of the new National Unity Government.

Zuma has maintained his stance that the General Parliamentary Election held on May 29, 2024, was marred by government interference, and therefore he wants all results annulled because the ANC cannot be the solution to the country's problems.

The MK, under Zuma who resigned from the presidency in 2018 due to corruption scandals, won 58 parliamentary seats and will join forces with the Economic Freedom Fighters led by Julius Malema and the United Democratic Movement.
