MK National Council in Gauteng calls for calm and rationality as we join the ANC Veterans League, Eastern Cape MK LWVs, and other progressive organisations and individuals for the defence of our constitutional order. It is clear to everyone that a dark cloud is gathering over the republic, threatening stability, and placing at risk, all that we hold dear as a Nation, peace and stability, whose absence can only derail the Developmental State the ANC is tasked to construct.

OUR STANCE ON LEGALITY 

South Africa is a Constitutional State that places the equality before the law at the center of our daily lives. That all shall be equal before the law is what was promised by the Freedom Charter after all. It is therefore normal, that as former Liberation War Soldiers, schooled in the Freedom Charter and trained to defend justice and legality with our lives, we cannot be silent when law and order is under threat.
