In his latest interview with BizNews, Elections Analyst Wayne Sussman explains why KZN Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi's Press Conference was “absolutely devastating”. He says the General's claims “go to the heart of the challenge of the ANC, that President Ramaphosa was going to reform the ANC and course correct after the devastating years of Jacob Zuma leading the ANC”. Intead, “here you have one of his trusted lieutenants, one of his right-hand men, one of the people in the party he's extremely close to, being fingered with the most damning of evidence with ties to the underworld”. He notes that the implicated Police Minister Senzo Mchunu was going to play “a key role in the next election for the ANC to recover all that lost support in KwaZulu-Natal”. Sussman also laments the assassination of African National Congress (ANC) councillor Thabang Masemola in Ward 10 in Mamelodi, saying that “this is becoming too common a feature of Gauteng politics”. Dissecting the latest by-election results, Sussman says the “the DA will say that they are on track on the road to Tshwane, which will be a battleground metro in 2026; uMkhonto weSizwe make inroads in ANC heartland, in Xhosa-speaking heartland; the Freedom Front will say…that they have some hope in the Free State”. He also gives a preview of upcoming elections that could be “really narrative forming on the road to the 2026 local government elections”.

The real founder of the MKP, Jabulani Khumalo, has been reinstated as a Director of uMkhonto weSizwe Party NPO - along without others - after his “fraudently” removal. In his latest interview with BizNews, he describes how the urgent legal application had to be withdrawn after it emerged that they had already been reinstated by the Commissioner of Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC). (Here is a link to the certificate issued by the Commissioner https://eu.docworkspace.com/d/sICWm4pDjAerXwcIG?lg=en-US&sa=601.1074&ps=1&fn=CoR39_60007187790.pdf . He now vows to clean up the party. “Because we are back as directors in the NPC, we are the majority. Those that parachuted themselves…we're going to take a decision on them. Because now we've got the power…very soon, those thugs will be out of our party, and will be out of our company. We don't want thugs within the leadership of uMkhonto weSizwe….After cleaning out all these people that wants to parachute themselves and become directors and founders of the organisation, we'll take the party and give it back to the original people and the people must start working freely without fear.” Meanwhile, Khumalo has this message for former SG Floyd Shivambo following his ill-fated time at MKP: “…whatever he does, he must not make a mistake of taking the style of Zuma to be a boss over the people. He must be a leader…And he must never think of enriching himself out of this party. Whatever he will be doing, but he must make sure that he puts the people of South Africa first.”

The African National Congress (ANC) had a strong by-election night last night. In this interview with BizNews, Election Analyst Wayne Sussman says it was “either their second best night or you could say equal their best night since 2024.” In Soweto, they had “resolute” support - despite uMkhonto weSizwe's MKP) Floyd Shivambo and Julius Malema of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) campaigning there. The ANC also had “solid” support in the uMgungundlovu district, (the second most populous district in KwaZulu-Natal) where, in 2024, MKP won 50% of the vote. And the ANC withstood an onslaught from the Patriotic Alliance (PA) and the Namakwa Civic Movement to clock up another win in the Northern Cape, where - since the 2024 election - it has won four wards off opposition parties. Sussman identifies Premier Zamani Saul as a possible future party leader. “If I…was the ANC, I would look strongly, not just at him for a leader at the next National Elective Congress, but also someone who's clearly doing something right…” As for the Democratic Alliance (DA) holding on to a ward Stellenbosch, he notes the 7% voter turn-out and points out that “they have some work to do”. Sussman also shares his take on the most competitive races in the next round of by-elections on May 28.

The Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg is expected to hear a legal challenge by former President, Jacob Zuma and the Umkhonto Wesizwe party, against the use of the term 'Government of National Unity' by the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC). In papers before the court, they have argued that the African National Congress and the Democratic Alliance signed a Statement of Intent (SOI) and invited other political parties to join, after which, nine other organizations heeded the call. The parties add that while the ANC may embark on a so-called propaganda campaign, accuracy is not a fundamental requirement for its constituency. They say that the SABC has a greater responsibility and statutory role to play when disseminating information, and has defied calls to stop using the term GNU, despite alleged expert analysis. The SABC is likely to cite Section 16 of the Constitution in its opposition of the application. For a better understanding of the story, Elvis Presslin spoke to South African National Editors' Forum (SANEF) Acting Gauteng Regional Convener, Hopewell Radebe

Suid-Afrika se oud-president Jacob Zuma het verklaar hy sal nie in die 2024 verkiesing vir die ANC stem nie. Hy het aangekondig dat hy in plaas daarvan sal stem vir die uMkhonto weSizwe-party. Die aankondiging is op ‘n nuuskonferensie namens Zuma deur sy dogter Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla gedoen. Sy het onthul Zuma sal nie stemme werf vir die ANC nie omdat hy glo die party voer ‘n oorlog teen progressiese swartmense en intellektueles. Hy verwag dit sal die ANC se eerste verkiesingsnederlaag wees sedert 1994.

Die politieke ontleder Dale McKinley is van mening dit is onwaarskynlik dat die ANC dissiplinêr sal optree teen Jacob Zuma. Die oudpresident het sy voorneme uitgespreek om nie stemme te werf of vir die ANC te stem in volgende jaar se verkiesing nie. Hy sal, in plaas daarvan, stem vir uMkhonto weSizwe. Zuma, wat reeds vir 64 jaar deel van die ANC is, beweer die party het respek vir Suid-Afrikaners verloor. McKinley het aan Newzroom Afrika gesê die ANC sal waarskynlik Zuma se boodskap ondermyn, eerder as om hom uit te skop.
