Magashule told his supporters at the launch of his manifesto in Evaton, south of Johannesburg, on Saturday that since ACT will not be on the ballot, it will throw its weight behind Zuma’s outfit, but that it must return the favour at the national level.

JOHANNESBURG - African Congress for Transformation President Ace Magashule said his organisation will be voting for the uMkhonto weSizwe Party when the country takes to the ballot.

The expelled former secretary general of the African National Congress launched his new party in 2023, months before Zuma announced that he would be backing the MK Party.
