I-African National Congress (ANC) isibeke isitatimende esicacile mayelana nesinqumo sayo ngazwi linye sokumisa uJacob Zuma, owayengumengameli wale nhlangano. Lesi sinqumo sifinyelelwe yisigungu esiphezulu sale nhlangano esinamalungu angu-87, iNational Executive Committee (NEC) ngaphandle kokuphikisa.

Isimemezelo esenziwe ngoMsombuluko yi-ANC sokuhoxisa ubulungu bukaZuma okwesikhashana sisukela ezenzweni okuthiwa zidicilela phansi isithunzi seqembu. Ikakhulukazi, ukwesekwa kukaZuma okuvulelekile koMkhonto weSizwe Party osanda kusungulwa (MK Party) kanye nokugxeka kwakhe umengameli we-ANC uCyril Ramaphosa esidlangalaleni kubalwe njengokuphula umthethosisekelo weqembu.

UMnuz Fikile Mbalula, onguNobhala-Jikelele we-ANC, ugcizelele isivumelwano esiphakathi kwe-NEC, okuhlanganisa nekhokhasi yaKwaZulu-Natal eyaziwa ngokweseka uZuma. UMbalula ugqamise ubumbano nokuvumelana okusheshayo ngaphakathi kwe-NEC:

“I-KZN ibiyingxenye yale ngxoxo futhi ibe nesandla engxoxweni futhi ekugcineni kwaba yisinqumo esivumelana ngazwi linye se-NEC ukuthi kumele sithathe lesi sinqumo futhi akuzange kusithathe ubusuku nemini ukufika kuleso siphetho.”

UMbalula uphinde wakuphawula lokho ngenkathi umbuzo wokuthi uZuma uzogcina nini ukuxoshwa ihlale ivulekile, i-ANC, njengenhlangano yentando yeningi, iqinisekisa ukuthi uZuma unelungelo lokuphikisa ukumiswa kwakhe.

I-MK Party: Ukuvela Okuyimpikiswano

Ukuvela koMkhonto weSizwe Party sekuqubule umsindo omkhulu, njengoba i-ANC iwubiza njengemizamo yokuphikisa uguquko okuhloswe ngayo ukudicilela phansi uhulumeni wentando yabantu. Ngempelasonto, i-rally ye-MK Party ihlanganise izitatimende mayelana nokumisa izwe uma bengatholi iningi lezingxenye ezimbili kwezintathu okhethweni oluzayo. UMbalula ugxeke i-MK Party ngokugqugquzela ukulandisa okuyingozi futhi wamemezela nezinhlelo zokuphonsela inselelo ukubhaliswa kwabo ngeNkantolo Yokhetho.

“Nathi siphonse inselelo ngokombono weqembu uphawu lokuhweba woMkhonto weSizwe. Ukuba khona kwaleli qembu njengoMkhonto weSizwe kuwuphawu lwe-ANC.”

Ukuma kwe-ANC akugcini nje ngokubhekana nodaba olusheshayo lokumiswa kukaZuma kodwa nokukhathazeka okubanzi ngokusimama kwezombusazwe kanye nobuqotho bezinqubo zentando yeningi eNingizimu Afrika. Lesi simo sivela ngenxa yokulandelana kwezombusazwe kanye nezinkulumompikiswano mayelana nesiqondiso sekusasa le-ANC kanye nokuvikela izikhungo zentando yeningi eNingizimu Afrika.

Le ndaba eqhubekayo ikhombisa izinselelo zangaphakathi ze-ANC kanye nemizamo yayo yokugcina ukubumbana nomgomo lapho ibhekene nengcindezi yangaphandle kanye nezibalo ezihlukanisayo.
