MK Party expels two Members of Parliament with immediate effect
It says they have undermined the unity and organisational discipline of the MKP.
The MK Party has officially expelled two Members of Parliament, Dr Khanyisile Litchfield-Tshabalala and Pumlani Kubukeli, from the party with immediate effect. The decision comes after a series of actions and conduct that have damaged the party's reputation and undermined its unity and organizational discipline. The party has notified the National Assembly Speaker, Thoko Didiza, to commence the process for their removal from Parliament.
Dr John Hlophe, the first deputy president, remains in his position but continues to serve as the party’s Parliamentary leader. Another significant change has occurred as Nathi Nhleko, the national chairperson, was replaced by Apostle Mxolisi Phakathi. The party has also announced several other leadership changes, including the appointment of Jacob Zuma’s son, Duduzane Zuma, as first deputy president and Tony Yengeni as second deputy president.
