Former EFF chairperson advocate Dali Mpofu has quit the Economic Freedom Fighter.
Mpofu said he would be joining Jacob Zuma’s MK Party.
In an interview on SABC morning live Mpfo said the GNU is a betrayal to the course to liberate South Africa.
He said that he was off the the view that the party that really represents his own passion for national unity is the MK Party .
“The MK Party has been true to fostering unity. Total black and progressive unity and I feel total liberation would be achieved through MK Party.”
He said he had taken a lot soul searching in the decision to join the MK Party.
“I believed that that vehicle that we will achieve national and progressive unity is the MK Party.”
He said he will always be a part of political parties.
Mpofu was a part of the ANC for three years and the EFF for 11 years.
“I don’t believe you have to die in the ANC, EFF or MK. But for now the MK Party represented a much broader vision for decolonisation and carries the alternative to unite our people,” he said.
Asked him what made him quit the EFF for MK, Mpofu said: “We need to take the shortest route.”
He said Floyd Shivambu, who recently quit the EFF to join MK Party, had nothing to do with his move.
Mpofu said his membership had lapsed and he was free to make the announcement.
