Former Springbok coach Peter de Villiers has joined the uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MK party) after his departure from the GOOD party. The MK party, aiming to expand its influence in the Western Cape, sees De Villiers's recruitment as a significant boost. De Villiers, who was dismissed from the GOOD party last year for breaching its code of conduct, expressed his commitment to the MK party's goals of serving the people and addressing social issues.
The former Springbok coach will take another shot at politics after his stint with the GOOD party ended abruptly.The uMkhonto weSizwe Party is aiming to make inroads in the Western Cape.
MK party deputy president John Hlophe met with ‘Pete Snor’ De Villiers earlier this week to make the public announcement.The 67-year-old was sacked by the party in March last year after it found him guilty of breaching their code of conduct.“As soon as the coach announced the Springbok team, it’s not the biggest moment. The biggest moment is for them to go out and win the game,” said De Villiers during the unveiling.
“You look at the communities. The one thing that triggers is that when the truth becomes a lie,” said De Villiers.
