MKP Commander General, President Jacob Zuma welcomes Adv. Dali Mpofu to the organisation

6 November 2024

On behalf of the millions of members and supporters of uMkhonto weSizwe Party, we welcome Advocate Dali Mpofu to the organisation whose aim is to unite all the progressive forces of revolutionary change. Adv. Mpofu has over the years demonstrated that he is a reliable, committed, humble, respectful and fearless fighter for justice and real emancipation. He has demonstrated these values and principles as an Activist and as a Lawyer who is truly committed to justice. We believe that with the values that uMkhonto weSizwe espouses and upholds, Advocate Mpofu will be a perfect fit into the membership and leadership of our organisation.

Advocate Mpofu participated in and internalised the revolutionary agenda to unify the progressive forces long before the official announcement of uMkhonto weSizwe Party on the 16th of December 2024. He played a crucial role in the many underground dialogues and engagements that were held with different political parties and individuals on the need to unite all the progressive forces in South Africa to fight against the reintroduction of white minority rule in South Africa.

After uMkhonto weSizwe entered the open phase of it's political journey, Advocate Mpofu defended our movement with excellence and fought against both internal and external attempts to destroy and destabilise our organisation at formative stages. He has always been a true defender of our revolutionary mission agenda, and will continue to play an important role in the movement. His formal association with uMkhonto weSizwe is a deep testament of faith and conviction in the revolutionary path and agenda we are in pursuit of.

We call on all members and leaders of uMkhonto weSizwe Party to warmly welcome Advocate Mpofu in the same way we welcome all members who are joining and will continue to join uMkhonto weSizwe. Advocate Mpofu is no stranger to the revolutionary politics agenda. He has been an ardent, fearless anti-apartheid, anti-establishment activist and politician since he was very young. He associated with the struggle of our people for almost 50 years, and we are pleased and confident that he will continue to play a meaningful role.

With the massive political, ideological and organisational experience that he posses, we will as the leadership collective of uMkhonto weSizwe decide on the specific role he will play in the organisation. He is committed and has always been committed to the agenda of unification of all the progressive political formations and uMkhonto weSizwe is a perfect platform and movement for the unification of all the progressive forces for total emancipation.

The struggle continues!
