At a recent memorial service, Mbalula took a playful dig at Malema, the leader of the opposition party. Despite Malema’s presence, Mbalula joked about always defeating him in Limpopo and greeted him to avoid any accusations of snubbing. On the other hand, Shivambu announced his departure from the EFF after a decade of membership. Malema, while accepting this decision, expressed deep emotional sentiments, likening Shivambu’s exit to the pain of losing a loved one. Following his resignation, Shivambu openly embraced the MK Party, sharing his decision on social media without any expectation of a specific role or deployment.
Despite the political shifts and realignments, the landscape remains dynamic and unpredictable. The choices made by these prominent figures have the potential to reshape the future of South African politics. With each decision, alliances are formed, dissolved, and redefined, leaving a lasting impact on the political fabric of the nation.
