uMkhonto weSizwe MK MP Colleen Makhubele resigned as a legislator and quit the organisation on Monday, becoming the latest high-profile member to leave Jacob Zuma s party.
The resignation comes after Makhubele was ousted as chief whip of the MK caucus in the national assembly amid a rift between herself, Zumas daughter Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla and party spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela.
I hereby tender my notice of resignation as a member of parliament of the Republic of South Africa, representing the uMkhonto weSizwe Party MKP, effective 28 February 2026, she said in a letter addressed to Zuma and dated 23 February.
