ANC Suspends Former President Jacob Zuma’s Membership Amidst Endorsement of uMkhonto weSizwe
The ANC Secretary-General, Fikile Mbalula, announces the National Executive Committee's decision to immediately suspend the membership of former President Jacob Zuma. The suspension is based on exceptional circumstances justifying such action, as outlined in Rule 25.60 of the party's Constitution. Zuma's public endorsement and support for the newly formed uMkhonto weSizwe have been cited as actions impairing the integrity of the ANC, leading to this significant disciplinary measure.
