Decline in Support for Zuma’s MKP and Malema’s EFF Signals Shift in South African Politics

  • Recent poll results show a decline in public support for Jacob Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP) and Julius Malema’s Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), two significant forces in South African politics.
  • MKP’s support has dropped from 15% to 12%, largely due to corruption scandals and internal party issues. The EFF has similarly seen a decrease from 10% to 7%, with controversies around Malema’s statements and party infighting driving away some voters.
  • This trend suggests a shift in voter preference towards more moderate parties as South Africa approaches the 2024 elections, posing a challenge for both the MKP and EFF to regain their influence.

 

Political parties led by former President Jacob Zuma and Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema are experiencing a significant decline in public support, according to recent polling data. Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP) and Malema’s EFF, both formerly seen as influential contenders in South Africa’s political arena, have seen noticeable drops in voter backing.

The MKP, known for its advocacy of Zuma’s legacy, has seen its support shrink from 15% to 12%. Analysts attribute this decline to public disillusionment over corruption scandals associated with Zuma and persistent internal party conflicts. Despite its efforts to connect with disenfranchised voters, the MKP appears to be struggling to sustain its relevance in the current political climate.

Meanwhile, the EFF, a far-left party renowned for its radical proposals and outspoken leader, has also seen support fall, dropping from 10% to 7%. The decline is reportedly due to various factors, including dissatisfaction with the party’s lack of progress on its promises, internal discord, and increasingly polarizing comments by Malema. The EFF’s stance on land expropriation and nationalizing industries seems to be alienating moderate voters, a shift that could hurt the party’s chances in the upcoming 2024 national elections.

These polling results indicate a broader change in South Africa’s political landscape, as voters appear to be gravitating towards more established and centrist options. With elections approaching, the question remains whether the MKP and EFF can recover their lost ground or if these trends signal the beginning of a new era in South African politics.
