Mbuyiseni Ndlozi Quashes Resignation Rumors: Seen with Malema and EFF Leadership at MEC Maile’s Family Home
Johannesburg – Prominent EFF leaders, including Julius Malema and Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, paid their respects at the Maile family home following the tragic loss of Pholuso Mokubedi Maile, the son of MEC Lebohang Maile. The gathering of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leadership at the family home in Gauteng laid to rest persistent rumors that Ndlozi might be on the verge of resigning from the party.
Julius Malema, the Commander-in-Chief (CIC) of the EFF, was accompanied by Commissars Dr. Mbuyiseni Ndlozi and Vuyani Pambo, along with ANC Youth League President Collen Malatji and EFF Gauteng Provincial Chair Leko Maile. The delegation’s presence served to show solidarity with the grieving Maile family and extend their condolences during this difficult time.
This visit comes amid recent speculation about Dr. Ndlozi’s political future within the EFF. In the days leading up to the visit, rumors had swirled that Ndlozi was contemplating leaving the party, following the departure of prominent figures such as Mzwanele Manyi and Floyd Shivambu, who recently joined the MK Party. Some political pundits had suggested that Ndlozi, who has been notably absent from the party’s limelight, might be the next high-profile exit.
However, today’s event silenced the chatter. Dr. Ndlozi was spotted appearing alongside Malema and other top brass, reaffirming his commitment to the movement. In fact, Ndlozi had earlier posted on social media wearing EFF attire, signaling his unwavering loyalty to the party. This visual statement puts an end to speculation about his possible departure and reinforces his status as a steadfast EFF leader.
The emotional visit to the Maile family, which brought together a cross-section of political leaders, demonstrated not only the EFF’s commitment to its members and their families but also its unity amid external speculation. The passing of Pholuso Mokubedi Maile has prompted an outpouring of condolences from various political figures, with the EFF leadership standing firm in their support for their colleague, MEC Lebohang Maile, during this trying time.
Mbuyiseni Ndlozi’s presence in the delegation, alongside Malema and Pambo, signals that he remains deeply entrenched within the EFF’s leadership structure. His ongoing engagement in key party activities affirms his dedication, dispelling the rumors of internal discord and potential exits.
As the EFF continues its political battles on multiple fronts, Ndlozi’s enduring presence solidifies the party’s message of resilience and strength. For now, the speculation about Ndlozi’s departure can be put to rest, as he remains a pillar of the EFF alongside Malema and other leading figures.
The Maile family has received widespread sympathy following the untimely passing of their son, and the support from key figures such as Malema, Ndlozi, and Pambo demonstrates the solidarity within the EFF, even in times of personal loss.
