Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>EFF MP and secretary-general Marshall Dlamini has responded to former EFF students command leader Mpho Morolane’s letter of resignation, saying Morolane was not a member of the EFF, therefore his letter was misdirected.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe write to inform you that your letter is misdirected as you are not a member of the EFF and you do not appear on the organisation’s membership system.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe advise you forward the letter to the relevant political party as this correspondence does not apply to the EFF. The organisation wishes you luck as you try to trace your political home,\u201d Dlamini said.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday Morolane announced his resignation from the party. Shortly after that, he joined the MK Party.<\/p>\n

His resignation comes after former EFF deputy leader Floyd Shivambu’s defection to the MK Party with former MP Mmabatho Makause.<\/p>\n

In the letter of resignation addressed to Dlamini, Morolane expressed the \u201cpain\u201d he endured during his tenure in the EFF.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pain one endured in decisions taken by the upper structure in relation to one’s tenure as the inaugural president of the student command has never warranted, from one’s end, disrespect to senior leadership,\u201d Morolane said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne expects the decision to be respected and accepted. Furthermore, the vitriol that is to descend upon one once the realisation of my departure from the organisation has set in will equally be accepted, for after every storm comes calm \u2014 there we will all meet in the united pursuit of the return of the land and economic freedom in our lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also acknowledged the difficulty that came with leaving the party after a decade-long affiliation.<\/p>\n

Dlamini’s letter was met with immediate backlash from many who defended Morolane’s membership on social media, citing his active participation in party activities. The debate continued, with some arguing Morolane’s membership had expired due to non-renewal and his letter was therefore valid.<\/p>\n

EFF MP Naledi Chirwa said Morolane’s membership lapsed in 2022.<\/p>\n
