Iqembu loMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP), ngaphansi kobuholi bukalowo owayenguMengameli uJacob Zuma, selikhiphe uFloyd Shivambu esikhundleni sokuba nguNobhala-Jikelele, ikhala ngokuthi ukwephulwa kwemithetho yeqembu kulandela ukuvakashela kobezibiza ngomphrofethi waseMalawi nombaleki uShepherd Bushiri.

Uhambo lukaShivambu, okubikwa ukuthi aluzange lugunyazwe ngokusemthethweni yiqembu, lususe impikiswano enkulu, hhayi nje ngenxa yezinkinga eziqhubekayo zezomthetho zikaBushiri kodwa nangenxa yemiphumela yangaphakathi yezepolitiki oluyiqubule ngaphakathi kwe-MKP. Lokhu kwenzeke ngemuva kwesinqumo senkantolo yaseMalawi sokwamukela isicelo sokubuyiselwa kweNingizimu Afrika uBushiri nonkosikazi wakhe, uMary, oweqa ngo-2020 ngesikhathi bengaphandle ngebheyili ngamacala ahlanganisa ukukhwabanisa nokushushumbisa imali. Laba bashadikazi baphinde babhekane nezinsolo zokudlwengula, abahlose ukuziphikisa ngokuthi badlulise icala.

Esitatimendeni esithunyelwe nguSihlalo kazwelonke we-MKP, uMnuz Nkosinathi Nhleko, kuqinisekisiwe ukuthi uShivambu wephule imithetho yangaphakathi. Efunda umbiko osemthethweni uNhleko ukugcizelele ukuthi umthethosisekelo weqembu wephuliwe.

“Ngemuva kwezingxoxo ezinde kanye nemibono eminingi evela ezikhulwini zikazwelonke, kwafinyelelwa esiphethweni sokuthi izenzo zika (Shivambu) zatholakala ziphikisana nomoya kanye nemithetho ye MK Party Umthethosisekelo. Ikakhulukazi, iSigaba 3 (j) ngaphansi 'Kwamacala', esibeka lokhu okulandelayo: j) Ukuthatha uhambo lwamazwe ngamazwe nokubamba iqhaza emisebenzini nezinhlelo eziphikisana ne-ajenda ye-MK Party noma inhlangano ehlangene,”

Lesi simemezelo senziwe esithangamini sabezindaba eThekwini ngoLwesibili, lapho uZuma ehambele khona. Izingqapheli zibone izimpawu zokuqhelelana kwezombusazwe ngisho nangaphambi kokuba kuqale ukuqulwa kwamacala, lapho uShivambu ekhetha ukuhlala eduze nabezindaba futhi aqhelelane noZuma - isenzo esicashile kodwa esishoyo.

"NgoMsombuluko, uMengameli Jacob Zuma uhlangane nezikhulu zikazwelonke zoMkhonto weSizwe Party, ukuzobheka isimo senhlangano. Njengengxenye yezingxoxo zezikhulu zikazwelonke, kubhekwe udaba oluthinta uhambo lwakamuva lukaNobhala Jikelele uFloyd Shivambu oluya eMalawi."

Ubuholi buphinde basho ukuthi uhambo lukaShivambu aluzange lugunyazwe yizinhlaka zeqembu noma uMengameli, futhi ngenxa yalokho luwukwephulwa kwezimiso nemithetho yeqembu.

“Ngokusekelwe ezingxoxweni zezikhulu zikazwelonke, kuphinde kwaqinisekiswa ukuthi lolu hambo bekungelona uhlelo olugunyazwe ngokusemthethweni lwenhlangano noma lukaMengameli, nokuyinto ephambene nomthethosisekelo weqembu.”

Iqembu liphinde lasithethelela isinqumo njengesibalulekile ukuze kugcinwe imigomo yenhlangano kanye nesithunzi somphakathi.

“Ngenxa yobucayi balolu daba nemithelela yalo eqenjini, isithunzi salo, izimiso nezimiso zalo, uMengameli nezikhulu zikazwelonke basala bengenayo enye indlela ngaphandle kokuthi basukumele ngokushesha lolu daba,”

U-Shivambu, ojoyine i-MKP esuka ku-Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) ngo-August wonyaka odlule, waqale waqokwa njengomgqugquzeli kazwelonke futhi wakhushulelwa ngokushesha waba nguNobhala-Jikelele ngoNovemba. Ukukhuphuka kwakhe ngokushesha eqenjini kudale ukungaboni ngaso linye, abanye abangaphakathi bethi uthanda abasanda kungena ezikhundleni eziphezulu kunamalungu ayisisekelo - isimangalo esengeze izingqimba zobunzima ekuxoshweni kwakhe.

Yize isizathu esisemthethweni sokususwa kwakhe sigxile ohambweni lwaseMalawi, ukungaboni ngaso linye ngaphakathi kwe-MKP kuphakamisa ukunganeliseki okubanzi. Sekuqubuke izinsolo kwezinye izingxenye zeqembu ezisola uShivambu ngokubeka izintambo esikhundleni ngokuqoka abathembekile nokubeka eceleni amalungu akudala ekhona.

Eziphendulela ngezindaba zokukhishwa kwakhe esikhundleni, uShivambu uzwakalise ukuzisola futhi wasamukela esidlangalaleni isinqumo seqembu.

“Ngiyazisola ngesinqumo sami sokuya eMalawi,”

esho, wengeza ngokuthi uhlala ebonga ukwethenjwa uZuma.

“Ngibonga uMengameli Zuma ngokungiphathisa izikhundla eziphezulu eqenjini.”

UShivambu phambilini uzichithile izinsolo abekwe zona, wathi azikho izikhalo ezisemthethweni ezike zaphakanyiswa emihlanganweni yangaphakathi futhi waphakamisa ukuthi ukugxekwa okuvela ezinkundleni zokuxhumana akuthembekile.

“Alikho ilungu leqembu elike laphakamisa ukungenami kwalo ngami emihlanganweni esemthethweni yeqembu futhi bengingeke nginandise amazwi angenasici ezinkundleni zokuxhumana.”

Yize ekhushulelwe esikhundleni, uShivambu akasuswanga ngokuphelele kwezombusazwe. I-MKP isimemezele ukuthi uzosatshalaliswa kabusha ukuze asebenze ePhalamende - okuyisinyathelo esingase sikhombise umzamo wokubuyisana noma ukuphinda abelwe kabusha ukuze kulondolozwe ubumbano eqenjini elisafufusa.
