The recent announcement of the Economic Freedom Fighters’ (EFF) new central command team has raised eyebrows, particularly with the notable exclusion of Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, a founding member and former national spokesperson of the party. This development has sparked concerns about Ndlozi’s role in the party and his future with the EFF.
The list included 66 individuals including Sinawo Tambo and others.
Ndlozi’s absence from key meetings, including the National People’s Assembly (NPA), has fueled speculation about his status within the party. His removal from his parliamentary portfolio has also added to rumors of internal discord, especially after the departure of former deputy president Floyd Shivambu.
The EFF’s leadership has been criticized for its handling of Ndlozi’s situation, with some analysts suggesting that his exclusion is linked to his perceived alignment with Shivambu, who joined the MK Party after leaving the EFF.
The unfolding developments have significant implications for the EFF’s direction and unity. As the party prepares for significant changes, Ndlozi’s future with the EFF remains uncertain.
The situation has sparked debates about leadership dynamics and factionalism within the party, with some supporters expressing concern about the suppression of alternative voices in leadership.
