The uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MK) has called for calm among its members, urging them to avoid involvement in any form of violence.
The party welcomed the deployment of police to KwaZulu-Natal following last week’s elections. The deployment of an additional 300 public order police is part of the government’s security plans.
Some believe the deployment is due to fears of possible violence from parties unhappy with the outcomes of the coalition talks and election results.
The MK party’s eThekwini region interim spokesperson Bonginkosi Dlamini says, “You have never heard any case of uMkhonto weSizwe being involved in any case of political violence. That is why we say to our members to be calm and be peaceful.”
“You know there have been some objections that have been made. We need to wait for our commander in chief Mr Jacob Zuma to tell us what is our next step,” says Dlamini.
