Dali Mpofu Emerges as Political Power Broker in High-Stakes Mediation Role

Dali Mpofu Emerges as Political Power Broker in High-Stakes Mediation Role

Prominent advocate Dali Mpofu is quietly reinventing himself as South Africa’s go-to political mediator, following his successful brokering of a confidential agreement between businesswoman Mary Phadi and former Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane.

The breakthrough comes just weeks after Mpofu’s headline-grabbing lecture on Jacob Zuma’s legacy in Durban, cementing his transition from fiery courtroom advocate to behind-the-scenes dealmaker. While details of the settlement remain confidential, insiders confirm the mediation averted a potentially explosive public dispute with far-reaching political consequences.

“This isn’t just about legal expertise – it’s about understanding the unspoken rules of political warfare,” said political analyst Nompumelelo Zondi. “Mpofu’s unique position, straddling the legal fraternity, the EFF’s inner circle and now broader political networks, makes him an indispensable mediator in this volatile climate.”

Neither Phadi nor Mkhwebane have issued public statements, but multiple sources confirm both parties have privately acknowledged Mpofu’s pivotal role in resolving the standoff.

The development signals Mpofu’s strategic positioning ahead of the 2026 elections, where his ability to navigate factional divides could prove invaluable. Having represented everyone from mineworkers to former presidents, his Rolodex now appears to be his most powerful asset.

As coalition politics become increasingly fractious, observers suggest Mpofu’s new niche as a political fixer may eclipse even his legal legacy. For a man who once described himself as “constitutionally unemployable,” he appears to have created the ultimate job description: South Africa’s shadow diplomat.
