Newly-formed Umkhonto weSizwe (MK Party) has confirmed that it will not attend tomorrow’s Presidential Inauguration. The party confirmed this in a statement, stating that tomorrow’s inauguration of President Cyril Ramaphosa is sponsored by the DA.
MK Party Spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela says joining tomorrow’s inauguration would be like spitting on the graves of those who died for freedom.
The MK last week boycotted the first parliamentary sitting after receiving 58 seats in the National Assembly at the 29 May polls.
However, the party has recently made a U-turn, saying it will head to parliament to continue its fight against the alleged rigging of voting results.
