The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party has given President Cyril Ramaphosa until 9:00 on Friday, 18 July, to resign as head of state.

The party said it has formally delivered a letter of demand asking Ramaphosa to resign in honour of Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the founding Commander-in-Chief of uMkhonto weSizwe.

MK PARTY WANTS RAMAPHOSA TO RESIGN ON MANDELA DAY

MK Party spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela said that should Ramaphosa fail to heed this call, the party will pursue a range of lawful and peaceful actions, including constitutional litigation, a motion of no confidence in Parliament, and rolling mass action nationwide.

Ndhlela said these steps reflect the will of the people, who, through democratic means, delivered a decisive electoral verdict against the African National Congress (ANC) under Ramaphosa’s leadership.

“It is deeply regrettable that, despite the clear message from the electorate, the will of the people has been undermined by opportunistic political alliances. The so-called Government of National Unity (GNU), formed by the DA, Freedom Front Plus, and their collaborators, has effectively reinstalled the very ANC that South Africans voted out. This betrayal has sparked widespread public outrage and represents a direct affront to democratic accountability,” he said.

Further, Ndhlela said the recent explosive revelations by KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi further expose the GNU as a deeply compromised arrangement, more aligned with criminality than with the constitutional mandate to serve the people.

The Jacob Zuma-led party views the GNU as the most dangerous political fraud in post-apartheid South Africa, enabling the continued theft of land, resources, and dignity.

“The MK Party calls on Cyril Ramaphosa and the GNU to respect the voice of the people before irreparable damage is done to South Africa’s democratic institutions. The time for accountability and ethical leadership is now.”
