DISCUSSION: John Hlophe appointed MK Parliamentary leader

The Electoral Court has issued directives in the uMkhonto weSizwe Party's bid to invalidate the elections.

The specialist court has given respondents until Tuesday to file responding affidavits.

The MK Party has appointed former Western Cape judge, John Hlophe as the party's Parliamentary leader.

In a statement, the party says Hlophe's distinguished career and unwavering Pan-African outlook have established him as a formidable force against systemic racism, particularly in the Western Cape.

There's been mixed reaction to this decision by the party.
