Jacob Zuma He never digested being ousted from the presidency in 2018 after allegations of corruption. This leaves the ANC facing a new crisis as the country celebrates Reconciliation Day.

Jacob Zuma used the day to reconcile with his political family and the head of state. ” Ramaphosa’s ANC is a relay of white capitalism “,” Ramaphosa’s ANC declared war on black professionals and intellectuals ” or ” Campaigning for Ramaphosa’s ANC is a betrayal “, he announced.

Jacob Zuma has called for a vote for a new party, uMkhonto weSizwe (MK), named after the ANC’s former armed wing. Dissatisfied with this, the ruling party has already announced that it will approach the court to save the name it owns.

The inconsistency could siphon precious votes from the president’s party, which risks losing its majority in the 2024 election, the first time ever.

In his thirst for revenge against President Ramaphosa, Jacob Zuma is willing to weaken his own party, although he refuses to quit. He claims to be leading a rescue mission for the ANC.
