Look At List Of Former MK and EFF Members Appointed As Leader By Floyd in His Party

A new political force is taking shape in South Africa as the Mayibuye National Consultation Process gains momentum, attracting high-profile leaders and grassroots support in equal measure. The movement, which positions itself as a return to liberation-era values through modern participatory democracy, has made strategic appointments that signal its serious intentions.

The inclusion of former uMkhonto weSizwe Party figures Patrick Sindane, Luther Lebelo, and Menzi Magubane brings liberation struggle credibility, while ex-EFF members Vusi Khoza and Fana Mokoena add contemporary political heft. This cross-pollination of experienced activists and politicians suggests a deliberate effort to create a broad-based alternative to established parties.

At community forums across the country, Mayibuye representatives are hearing directly from citizens about pressing issues – from land reform and unemployment to corruption and service delivery. The movement’s emphasis on grassroots engagement appears to be resonating, with early consultations drawing significant public interest.

Political analyst Dr. Teboho Ramose observes: “This represents more than just another opposition platform. The combination of struggle heritage, political experience, and genuine public participation could disrupt South Africa’s political landscape.”

The leadership’s rhetoric emphasizes a break from what they term “elitist politics,” with Sindane declaring at a recent Soweto gathering: “We’re returning power to where it belongs – with the people.” Mokoena has framed the initiative as both a reckoning and rebirth for progressive politics.

With plans underway for provincial consultations leading to a national convention later this year, Mayibuye appears to be methodically building toward a formal political structure. While still in its formative stages, the movement’s unique blend of veteran leadership and participatory democracy could position it as a credible alternative as voter disillusionment with traditional parties grows.

As South Africa approaches its next electoral cycle, all eyes will be on whether this grassroots-driven initiative can translate early momentum into tangible political influence. The coming months will reveal whether Mayibuye can maintain its current trajectory and potentially reshape the country’s political landscape.
