Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla, daughter of former South African President Jacob Zuma, and Nhlamulo Ndhlela are challenging their recent expulsions from the uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK) Party. The pair filed an urgent application with the Johannesburg High Court, alleging the expulsion process violated principles of due process. They argue they were removed from the party without a fair hearing or opportunity to defend themselves. The MK Party, founded earlier this year, is a new political force gaining traction ahead of South Africa’s upcoming elections. The legal challenge raises questions about internal governance within the party and could impact its electoral prospects. The court will now consider the application and determine the validity of the expulsions.
