Africa-Press – South-Africa. Three months after forming Xiluva, Bongani Baloyi has finally registered his party with the Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC).
This has paved the way for him to table the party’s foundational documents on 19 July.
Celebrating the milestone, Baloyi, a former ActionSA member, said the party had grown significantly, which was an “indication that the people of South Africa want to change the direction this country is heading in”.Baloyi said:
At the launch of Xiluva in March, Baloyi said the party would be an alternative political vehicle for people aged between 18 and 45. However, he said that the party had gained support and interest from the older generation, which he welcomed.
Baloyi has set his sights on meeting the IEC threshold to contest nationwide in 2024 by collecting signatures from registered voters.
Baloyi, who said he left ActionSA because of trust issues with its leader Herman Mashaba, has led initiatives nationwide to encourage young people and their families to join Xiluva and register to vote.
