The newly launched Mayibuye iAfrika movement is making waves in Mpumalanga, drawing hundreds of supporters since its official debut on 22 June. The initiative, championed by former MK Party secretary-general Floyd Shivambu, is positioning itself as a grassroots alternative focused on economic justice and youth empowerment.

Growing Discontent with MK Party

The movement gained early credibility when Dr. Innocent Chauke, former coordinator of the MK Party Medics Programme, publicly resigned on 25 June. Chauke accused the party of mismanagement, financial irregularities, and factionalism, declaring it had become a “personal project” for a select few. His departure has encouraged other disillusioned members to explore alternatives.

Grassroots Surge in Support

In just days, Mayibuye iAfrika’s registration portal saw over 300 sign-ups in the Ehlanzeni region alone. Volunteers—ranging from teachers to small-business owners—are providing details on their backgrounds and local concerns, signaling a demand for more inclusive politics.

Provincial Conference & Nationwide Consultations

The movement’s National Consultation Team (NCT) is set to hold its first major gathering in Mbombela next month. Plans include touring 10 cities, with a focus on rural Mpumalanga, to gather input on land reform, job creation, and small-business support. The findings will shape a People’s Convention in August.

A Shift from Personalities to Policies

At a recent meeting in Steve Tshwete Municipality, residents expressed enthusiasm for the movement’s issue-based approach. “For the first time, I feel heard,” said Nompendulo Sithole, a teacher from Hendrina.

Reviving a Liberation Legacy

The name Mayibuye iAfrika (“May it return, Africa”) echoes historic calls for justice and self-determination. As MK Party defections rise, the movement’s ability to turn initial excitement into lasting support could redefine Mpumalanga’s political landscape ahead of 2026.

Will Mayibuye iAfrika become a real challenger in South African politics? Share your thoughts.
