MK Party Historic Media Briefing – 16 May 2026 🇿🇦
Today in Durban, at the Coastlands Skye Hotel in uMhlanga, President Jacob Zuma delivered a powerful address outlining a bold new chapter for the uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP).
Following an 18-month organisational, ideological, and strategic assessment, the President announced the formal establishment of the MK Party Institute. This Institute will serve as the central strategic, ideological, and philosophical engine of the movement guiding our direction with clarity, discipline, and purpose.
Major Announcements:
🟢 Disbanding of the current National High Command.
🟢 Formation of a new, more disciplined National Executive Committee drawn from experienced leadership, provincial structures, and MK veterans.
🟢 A strategic shift from conventional party politics to operating as a full Liberation Movement focused on deep societal transformation.
🟢 All party structures will now report through the MK Party Institute during this critical transitional period.
🟢 Strong emphasis on ideological education rooted in Pan-Africanism, African nationalism, Black Consciousness, decolonisation, and the restoration of Ubuntu/Botho values.
🟢 Renewed focus on community mobilisation, particularly uplifting the poorest of the poor and reclaiming African dignity and sovereignty.
President Zuma will officially launch the movement’s ideological framework and ontology on 28 May 2026 in Johannesburg.
This reconfiguration is not just internal restructuring it is a decisive step to build a conscious, united, and unstoppable force capable of challenging elite capture, inequality, and the failures of the current system. We are preparing thoroughly for the 2026 Local Government Elections with renewed energy and clarity.
The MK Party is not just another political party. We are a movement for Total Liberation.
Amandla!
Forward with discipline, unity, and purpose!
Gwaza Mkhonto Gwaza! 💚🖤
South Africans, the time for real change is now. Register. Mobilise. Organise. And come 2026, VOTE MKP in your municipalities for genuine service delivery, economic freedom, and total liberation!

BREAKING NEWS | KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi will soon be leading a national crime-fighting project.
This will focus on organised crime in all forms, countrywide.
He has given an assurance that the province of KZN will still be in good hands, and the new task would not completely remove him from his current role.

Serious industrial nations don’t take accountants as seriously as South Africa does.
In industrialising nations, like Vietnam and surrounding states, for instance, the most prestigious roles are found in engineering or industrial management because the economy is physically building things.
Meanwhile, in South Africa, SAICA’s CA(SA) is viewed as the ultimate golden ticket.
But it’s not only in developing/industrialising nations where accountants take a back seat. In the US, Germany and Japan, CEOs are generally product people or engineers, while in South Africa, a massive percentage of JSE-listed CEOs are chartered accountants.
The reason for this is that the South African economy has been deindustrialising for decades, so the existing companies don’t grow by inventing new things or expanding production. They “grow” through the financial engineering of mergers, acquisitions, cost-cutting, and “tax optimisation”.
The consequence of this is that if you compare SA to an employment-dense industrialiser like Vietnam, you find that the latter focuses on vocational excellence. Over there, an accountant is just a back-office functionary who supports the factory. The hero is the plant manager who meets a production quota.
But South Africa, to its detriment, is obsessed with compliance excellence. The factory, if it even exists, is a “risk” to be managed, and the chartered accountant is the high-priest who tells the board if that risk is acceptable.
By taking accountants this seriously, South Africa has perfected the art of measuring value, but has neglected the art of creating real tangible value.
The worship and adoration of the CA(SA) is a symptom of a services-led economy that has skipped the labour-intensive industrialisation phase, and this is primarily why the unemployment epidemic cannot be resolved.
So the IDC just ran a paid News24 piece telling South Africa how great they are. Allow me to do something the IDC apparently cannot: basic maths.
They say they approved R26.6 billion in “transformation funding” last year and “created or preserved” 15,000 jobs.
That is R1,773,333 per job.
One million, seven hundred and seventy-three thousand, three hundred and thirty-three rand. Per job.
You could pay someone the average South African salary for nearly seven years with that money. Or you could give it to the IDC and they will “create or preserve” one job. Maybe. If the company does not end up in their R30 billion distress portfolio.
Oh, did I not mention that? The IDC’s distress portfolio, that is the money they invested that is now in trouble, is R30 billion. That is bigger than the R26.6 billion they approved this year. They are underwater. They are losing money faster than they are deploying it.
And of that R30 billion in distress? R9 billion is in black-empowered entities. So roughly a third of the “transformation” money they are bragging about in paid newspaper articles is currently circling the drain.
But wait, there is more.
Since 2017, the IDC has given R8.5 billion to 128 black industrialists. Sounds impressive until you learn that a single manganese company got R6.1 billion. One company. That is 72% of the total. Three companies consumed virtually the entire allocation.
The average per industrialist? R66.4 million.
Here is my favourite part: the IDC says 88% of its funding goes to black-owned businesses. Beautiful number. Very clean. Very round. Very paid-media-friendly.
But when NAFCOC went to Parliament and said the IDC is undermining black industrialists through “aggressive recovery actions, premature legal enforcement, and liquidation processes,” the Portfolio Committee Chair responded: “It appears that the IDC has not effectively embedded issues of transformation in its business processes.”
That is Parliament. Not me. Parliament.
So here is what R26.6 billion in “transformation funding” actually looks like:
1. R1.77 million per job (if you believe the job numbers).
2. R30 billion in distress (which they do not mention in the paid article).
3. R9 billion in black business distress (which they definitely do not mention).
72% of black industrialist funding going to three companies (which they will never mention).
But sure. Run the paid article. The maths will still be here in the morning.
Makhamisa Foods, a Black-owned relish producer and former regular BrownSense Market trader, had a R48m private rescue deal on the table. All they needed was a commitment letter from the IDC. The IDC refused. The founder, Terence Leluma, alleges it was retaliation after he rejected an imposed shareholder.
These are allegations. But Fezile Dhlamini made similar claims weeks ago. NAFCOC has petitioned Parliament. An inquiry is now open. One complaint is a dispute. This many is a pattern that demands answers.
The IDC was built to support black industrialisation. Parliament must now establish whether that mandate is being honoured or hollowed out.
We're not asking for favours. We're asking for funding to flow where the requirements have been met.
Our community is watching.
