MKP Faces Crisis After Abrupt Expulsion of Mpumalanga Leader Mary Phadi

MKP Faces Crisis After Abrupt Expulsion of Mpumalanga Leader Mary Phadi

The uMkhonto Wesizwe Party (MKP) is embroiled in controversy following the sudden removal of its Mpumalanga leader, Mary Phadi, in what party insiders claim was a constitutionally questionable process.

Multiple sources within the party allege Phadi’s expulsion violated MKP’s own disciplinary procedures. “There was no hearing, no warning – just an expulsion letter,” revealed a senior member who spoke on condition of anonymity. Supporters say the move has left grassroots structures in shock, with one activist noting: “She built this base. Now they’re discarding the very person who brought people to the party.”

The dismissal has sparked allegations of a purge targeting independent voices, particularly strong female leaders. Phadi, known for her forthright style, had reportedly raised concerns about decision-making processes in the provincial leadership. “She challenged authority when necessary,” said a former associate. “That honesty may have cost her.”

MKP’s constitution mandates written charges and right of reply for disciplinary actions – safeguards members claim were ignored. The party’s silence has fueled speculation, with one worried member asking: “If this can happen to a provincial leader, what protection do ordinary members have?”

In Mbombela, a small but vocal group of supporters has begun protesting outside party offices, demanding Phadi’s reinstatement and transparent procedures. “She fought for us; now we fight for her,” one demonstrator told reporters.

Political analysts warn the incident could damage MKP’s credibility in a key province where Phadi had significant influence. “Arbitrary removals undermine trust in young parties,” observed one analyst. “This isn’t just about one person – it’s about organizational integrity.”

While Phadi has yet to make a public statement, sources close to her confirm she’s considering her options. Meanwhile, pressure mounts on MKP leadership to address growing concerns about due process and gender dynamics within its ranks.

The controversy raises fundamental questions about internal democracy as South Africa’s political landscape evolves. With no official explanation forthcoming, the party risks alienating the very grassroots supporters it needs to grow. As one disillusioned member put it: “Today Mary, tomorrow who?”
