The Jacob Zuma Foundation notes the decision made by the ANC National Disciplinary Committee of Appeal confirming the alleged expulsion of its Patron, H.E. President Zuma, from his 65-year-long membership of the ANC.

While it looks impossible that former president Jacob Zuma could ever return to the ANC, there is a move towards restoring the ANC to its “glory days” through a merger with the uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party and others, but all will be on Zuma’s terms, experts say.

The country’s governing party had severed ties with the former president in July after he campaigned for an opposition party in the last general election.

The African National Congress (ANC) National Disciplinary Committee of Appeal (NDCA) upheld the decision of the National Disciplinary Committee to expel Mr. Jacob Zuma from the ANC. This decision reaffirms the ANC commitment to revolutionary morality, revolutionary discipline, and democratic centralism.

In a statement issued yesterday, the Jacob G Zuma Foundation said the former statesman strongly rejected ‘the notion that the ANC, under the leadership of President Cyril Ramaphosa, has the authority to expel him from the movement to which he has dedicated his life’.
