Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The EFF has witnessed a string of high-profile departures, including former deputy president Floyd Shivambu and chairperson Dali Mpofu, who joined Jacob Zuma’s MK Party. Attention is now on MP Mbuyiseni Ndlozi whose future in the party remains uncertain.<\/p>\n

Ndlozi’s loyalty has been questioned, particularly after Julius Malema’s cryptic tweet implying some members’ \u201csouls are long gone\u201d. Though Malema defended his relationship with Ndlozi after Shivambu’s exit, speculation persists.<\/p>\n

Former DA MP Phumzile Van Damme has advised Ndlozi to leave, citing Malema’s \u201cdegrading\u201d treatment, but Ndlozi has reaffirmed his loyalty to the EFF.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know why Ndlozi puts up with being constantly publicly degraded like this. The man doesn\u2019t need politics, he has a whole PhD. Leave, Dr Ndlozi. No politics is ever worth your dignity. Leave this one and his failing party and thrive beyond his wildest imagination,\u201d Van Damme said.<\/p>\n

TimesLIVE previously reported insiders have speculated Ndlozi may exit after the EFF’s elective conference next month.<\/p>\n

Former Gauteng premier Mbhazima Shilowa believes controversy surrounds Ndlozi to \u201cgaslight\u201d him into leaving.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not sure what some in the media hope to gain by gaslighting Dr Ndlozi. Whether he stays or leaves is his decision. What is the end game? Whatever it is seems to have little to do with his interests but to feed the narrative of a resurgent MKP and a declining EFF.\u201d<\/p>\n
