Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party on Thursday announced the formation of its highest decision-making body, comprising eight officials and 45 additional members.<\/p>\n

The structure, which has been named the national high command, is tasked with building and expanding the organisation ahead of the 2026 local government elections.<\/p>\n

The body consists of the party\u2019s president and his deputy, secretary-general and his deputy, national chairperson and his deputy, national organiser and the treasurer-general.<\/p>\n

MK Party secretary-general Sifiso Maseko also announced the party\u2019s top eight leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident remains President Jacob Zuma; deputy president remains Comrade John Hlophe. The secretary-general, Sifiso Maseko. Deputy secretary-general is comrade Nombuso Mkhize. National organiser is Floyd Shivambu. National chairperson is non-other than Nkosinathi Nhleko.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Shivambu again refused to disclose what influenced him to join the MK Party, he believes the organisation is well equipped to liberate oppressed South Africans.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not in the business of trying to please each other\u2019s egos here. We are in the business of building a revolutionary movement that is going to emancipate the black majority and Africans in particular – and we are unapologetic about that. That is what we stand for,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Shivambu left the Economic Freedom Fighters last week, claiming his departure from the organisation he founded 11 years ago was purely political and not personal.<\/p>\n

MK Party top 8:<\/p>\n

President: Jacob Zuma<\/p>\n

DP: Dr. John Hlophe<\/p>\n

National Organiser: Floyd Shivambu<\/p>\n

Chairperson: Nathi Nhleko<\/p>\n

Deputy chair: Will Sibiloane<\/p>\n

Secretary General: Sifiso Masko<\/p>\n

Deputy Secretary General: Nombuso Mkhizwe<\/p>\n
