Zuma Dumps Shivambu, Declares Him “Irrelevant” to MK Party’s Future

Zuma Dumps Shivambu, Declares Him “Irrelevant” to MK Party’s Future

In a dramatic Youth Day address in Clermont, MK Party leader Jacob Zuma shocked supporters by publicly severing ties with former Secretary-General Floyd Shivambu, bluntly labeling him “irrelevant” to the party’s future. This stunning rebuke comes just months after Shivambu hailed his defection from the EFF to join Zuma’s MK Party as his “smartest political decision.”

The former president’s unexpected declaration sent ripples through political circles, signaling a potential power shift within the party. Zuma’s harsh dismissal suggests either an internal purge of dissenting voices or a strategic pivot in the party’s direction – with analysts divided on the true motive.

“This isn’t just a personal falling out – it’s a political earthquake,” said political analyst Sandile Swana. “Zuma is either clearing house of potential rivals or fundamentally restructuring the party’s leadership.”

The rupture is particularly striking given Shivambu’s recent enthusiastic support for Zuma. His high-profile defection from the EFF in early 2025 was seen as a major coup for the MK Party. Now, the very leader who welcomed him has publicly discarded him, leaving observers questioning the party’s stability.

For Shivambu, the “irrelevant” label deals a crushing blow to his political standing. How he responds – whether through quiet exit or public confrontation – could determine his future in South African politics.

The fallout highlights the fragile nature of political alliances, where yesterday’s allies can become today’s obstacles. Zuma’s move suggests a decisive break from certain factions as he reshapes the party in his image.

One thing is certain: Zuma has drawn a clear line in the sand. By declaring a former ally irrelevant, he’s signaled that the MK Party is entering a new chapter – one where only those who fully align with his vision need apply. The political repercussions of this rift will likely reverberate through South Africa’s political landscape in coming months.
