Zandile Gumede: ANC in KZN is drinking its own medicine, claims MK Party is a ‘messiah’
Zandile Gumede says she would never go back to the ANC.
Zandile Gumede, deputy convenor of the MK Party in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), asserts that corruption within the ANC is responsible for its declining support in the province. Gumede, who previously served as a long-standing member of the ANC and later as the ANC Women's League (ANCYL) in KZN, now holds a mayor's position in eThekwini.
She emphasizes that those who once held power within the ANC have been removed to curb the party's growth. After being charged with corruption, Gumede stepped down from her responsibilities within the ANC. She is now enthusiastic about joining the MK Party, describing her decision as a positive step. Gumede expresses gratitude for being invited to support the MK Party's vision under the guidance of Jacob Zuma, stating her commitment to working for the community.
She is confident about the MK Party's potential to become South Africa's next governing party, particularly in providing better governance for local communities. Gumede acknowledges that some may view the MK Party as tainted, but she stands firm in her belief that the party is a "messiah" for the people.
