Expelled MK Party MPs claim the party’s parliamentary leadership have instilled a culture of fear within its caucus and are acting without the knowledge of its president, Jacob Zuma.
CAPE TOWN - Expelled MK Party MPs claim the party’s parliamentary leadership has instilled a culture of fear within its caucus and is acting without the knowledge of its president, Jacob Zuma.
They say this cabal, which includes Zuma’s own daughter, are blocking members from reaching the party president at his home in Nkandla. The group, who are part of 18 MK Party MPs who say their expulsions and resignations from the party are bogus, spoke out on Thursday after approaching the high court on Wednesday in efforts to get their jobs back.Spokesperson for the group, Thamsanqa Khuzwayo, said the party’s leadership in Parliament, including its Chief Whip Sihle Ngubane, Zuma’s daughter Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla and party spokesperson, Nhlamulo Ndlela, were acting undemocratically.
"Even within the party, there are many people who are living in fear because they don’t know when they are going to be removed. So these guys are good at cheating themselves.""Maybe this is a process the MK Party needed, so the real criminals are revealed, the real sellouts who are trying to destroy this party are revealed, the real people who are doing everything so that they gain personally, will be revealed through this process.
They’ve instructed their lawyer to write to Speaker Thoko Didiza, requesting to return to their jobs in Parliament.
