EC people must reject parties that don’t serve their interest : MKP

Jacob Zuma visited various traditional kingdoms in the OR Tambo district of the Eastern Cape.

Eastern Cape Secretary-General of uMkhonto weSizwe (MKP) Sibonelo Nomvalo has urged residents of the province to reject political parties that fail to prioritize their needs. Accompanying MKP leader Jacob Zuma on a week-long visit to traditional kingdoms in OR Tambo district, Nomvalo emphasized that the trip is not an electioneering effort.

He stated, "We want to conscientise the people of the Eastern Cape that they shouldn’t be viewed as people who are indoctrinated into a party which doesn’t serve their interests." Nomvalo highlighted the province's underprivileged status as the most disadvantaged in the country, yet its citizens continue to vote for the ANC. He questioned the logic behind this, asking what it means for political parties to not be doing enough to inform Eastern Cape residents that they deserve better.

"The time for an alternative voice now for the people of the Eastern Cape has come and that alternative voice is the MK Party," Nomvalo concluded.
