The African People’s Convention is a South African political party formed by Themba Godi, former deputy leader of the Pan-Africanist Congress of Azania via floor-crossing legislation, on 4 September 2007.

Godi defected along with the PAC’s only two provincial representatives at the time.

He is the current leader of the APC. The party retained its seat in the National Assembly in the 2009 elections, although it lost both of its representatives in the provincial legislatures of Gauteng and Eastern Cape.

It retained its seat in the 2014 election, but lost it in the 2019 election.

Much like the PAC, the APC’s ideology officially appeals to “Africanists, Pan Africanists and Socialists”.

The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party picketed outside the Pietermaritzburg Magistrate's Court in KwaZulu-Natal. This is in relation to the court appearance of the Electoral Commission's area manager in Pietermaritzburg, who is suspected of tampering with ballot papers in the recent elections. Earlier this month, the party announced that it would approach an international court over the alleged rigging of last month's elections. MK leader in the Moses Mabhida region Reggie Ngcobo says there are other outstanding cases that are not on a court roll. Ngcobo says the party is continuing its fight to challenge the outcome of the national and provincial elections. Let's now bring in Legal analyst Reitumetse Phiri, who joins us via video link.
