Bongani Baloyi latest to join MK Party

Former Mayor of the Midvaal Municipality Bongani Baloyi has announced that he is joining the MK Party and deregistering his Xiluva party. Baloyi made the announcement in Soweto. The move follows a poor showing by the Xiluva party in the May elections.

Baloyi, who has moved from the DA to ActionSA before forming Xiluva, follows EFF Deputy President Floyd Shivambo and SARA’s Colleen Makhubele to the country’s third largest party.

Meanwhile, the African Transformation Movement (ATM) says it is only the Constitutional Court that is entitled by law to decide the removal or not of the uMkhonto weSizwe Party member John Hlophe to join the Judicial Service Commission.

The ATM has joined as the neutral party on the application on urgent basis to interdict Hlophe not to be part of the JSC. The Western Cape High Court is hearing part A on the matter which is sought by the DA pending the decision of the court on part B.

Senior Counsel for the ATM Anton Katz says the high court will set a bad precedence if it gives the relief sought because it has no exclusive jurisdiction on the matter but except the apex court.
