Former Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) spokesperson and Member of Parliament, Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, has officially resigned from the party.
In an interview with SABC, Ndlozi confirmed that he had already submitted his resignation letter, bringing an end to months of speculation surrounding his future, including his recent suspension from the party.
Reflecting on his decision, Ndlozi explained that after careful consideration, he chose to step away from politics altogether. He believes he has made his contribution in the political sphere and now wishes to focus on other areas.
“I have taken a decision to step away completely from party politics. I’m leaving party politics. I think I have made my contribution in that space. We don’t live in a one party state. We are not in the camps, we are not a band. Politics are a free activity in South Africa. And party politics are not a monopoly of making social contribution. I think after this episode, I’ve taken a decision to leave all of party politics and contribute in the first instance to the academy.”
He further elaborated, saying: “I have left the EFF, I have left party politics. EFF is a political party. I have handed over my resignation as a member and it is because where I want to go and contribute, I can’t hold a single party membership. But overall I think that I’ve made my contribution and I think that there are brilliant young men and women, old men and women in the space that will continue in that category, as it were, of party politics.”
