It’s alleged that the party forged signatures that would see it registered to appear on the 2024 ballot.
JOHANNESBURG - With a month until South Africans hit the polls, former president Jacob Zuma's uMkhonto weSizwe Party has been marred by allegations of fraud and a leadership purge.
These damning allegations also come as the party removed its co-founder Jabulani Khumalo and four other senior figures from its leadership structure over allegations of suspicious dealings with the African National Congress . The team allegedly obtained names, ID numbers, and cellphone numbers of job seekers from a database of the Cape Metro Council fraudulently.
The City Press added that some people on the supporter list denied signing, and some confirmed that they registered on the job seeker database.
