The former ANC president said the ANC carried out an illegal disciplinary process against him.
Zuma also claimed the party is targeting former National Executive Committee (NEC) member Yengeni for being his representative during his disputes with the party. However, his foundation said he wants to hold dual party membership to carry out the vision of the party’s forebears. “There is nothing that the MK Party has said, that the SACP has not said, but there’s been no consequences for the leadership of the SACP,” said spokesperson Mzwanele Manyi. However, Mbalula remained undeterred by Zuma’s latest legal threat. 'He must take us to court. He must do whatever he thinks is of importance to himself. We know his shenanigans. We knew his game plan. We have followed the constitution to the letter. We'll defend the integrity of our movement.' Zuma is demanding the full written record of his disciplinary proceedings by the end of January, or the ANC can again expect to face off against him in court
