Shivambu’s Take on Zuma’s ANC Struggles Sparks Speculation of Political Realignment

Former Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) deputy president Floyd Shivambu, now an influential figure in the MK Party, has offered sharp insights into former President Jacob Zuma’s ongoing contention with the African National Congress (ANC). Speaking to MK Party members, Shivambu highlighted Zuma’s persistent claims that the ANC under President Cyril Ramaphosa has strayed from its foundational principles. Shivambu echoed Zuma’s critique, suggesting that the ANC has abandoned its revolutionary roots in favor of policies perceived as out of step with its historic mission.

Zuma’s Dissatisfaction with the ANC Leadership

Zuma’s discontent stems from what he sees as a departure from the ANC’s original ethos of prioritizing the masses and advancing a liberation-centered agenda. This narrative resonates with factions of the ANC who are critical of Ramaphosa’s leadership, which has been characterized by pro-business initiatives and efforts to modernize the party. Zuma’s view that the ANC “no longer belongs to the current leadership” underscores the growing ideological divide within the party.

Potential Alliances Between the MK Party and ANC Factions

Shivambu’s comments suggest a potential alignment between the MK Party and disillusioned ANC members. He indicated that the MK Party, which claims to uphold the revolutionary ideals of the liberation struggle, could become a political refuge for ANC veterans who share Zuma’s dissatisfaction with the current administration. Shivambu stated, “The MK Party was founded on the principles of struggle, and many within the ANC still hold those values dear. If the ANC continues on this path, they will lose more of their soul, and the MK Party is prepared to welcome those who stay true to the revolution.”

This sentiment raises questions about whether the MK Party could gain momentum by capitalizing on ANC divisions. Shivambu hinted that ideological conflicts between Ramaphosa and Zuma’s supporters might lead to defections, further weakening the ANC’s internal cohesion.

A Potential Shift in South Africa’s Political Dynamics

As the ANC gears up for its next congress, the internal power struggle between Ramaphosa’s reformist faction and Zuma’s traditionalist loyalists is poised to shape the party’s future. Shivambu’s remarks suggest that the MK Party is positioning itself as a critical player in this shifting landscape. While no formal alliance has been confirmed, the possibility of collaboration between the MK Party and disgruntled ANC members could significantly alter South Africa’s political trajectory.

The road ahead will likely see intensified competition within the ANC, with the MK Party emerging as a potential beneficiary of the ruling party’s internal discord. Whether the ANC can resolve its rifts or if these divisions will lead to a broader political realignment remains uncertain, but the outcome could have profound implications for South African politics.
