The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party’s head of elections, Thokozani Msimang, has blamed former secretary-general Floyd Shivambu’s departure on his “overestimation” of his role and influence within the party.

In an interview on Tuesday, Msimang said Shivambu had “inflated his importance” and disrupted collective decision-making, leading to internal divisions. “He acted as if he was irreplaceable, but no one is bigger than the movement,” Msimang stated.

Shivambu, who left the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) to join the MK Party, was appointed secretary-general in early 2024. His tenure brought visibility but also tension, with insiders citing clashes over strategy, candidate selection, and leadership style. His removal earlier this year followed growing disagreements within the party.

Msimang stressed that the MK Party prioritizes collective leadership over individual ambition. “We are building a movement for the people, not personal agendas,” he said.

Shivambu has not publicly responded, but sources say he may contest his dismissal legally and politically. Analysts see the conflict as part of the MK Party’s growing pains as it seeks to solidify its position in South African politics.

“New parties often face power struggles,” said Professor Nandi Mhlongo of the University of Johannesburg. “How they manage internal disputes will determine their future.”

Despite the fallout, Msimang insists the party remains united. “We are moving forward—the mission is greater than any one person,” he said.
