This morning, on 17 January 2025, the uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP) announced that their Treasurer General, Dr. Thanti Mthanti, is stepping down with immediate effect.

Former president Jacob Zuma and leader of the MKP accepted a resignation letter dated 15 January 2025.

The statement indicates that he made this decision after thoroughly evaluating his professional and personal commitments.

In an interview with the eNCA, Mthanti mentioned that he had to be honest with the party leader that the work was too intense for him to do both the party and his business commitments justice.

This decision is driven by the need to balance my personal responsibilities and the demands of my professional commitments. I firmly believe the MK Party requires a full-time treasurer general to lead it effectively through this pivotal phase of its growth.

This decision was taken a month into his appointment in December 2024. Mthanti has been with the MKP since its founding, holding several leadership roles, such as Convenor of the National High Command deployees to the Western Cape and Chair of the Communications Sub-Committee.

Although he is stepping down from his leadership role, he will remain an active member of the National High Command and continue to help with important tasks, like setting up financial control systems for the party. The search for a new person to take over his role is underway.
