Mpho Morolane leaves EFF after 10 years
Economic Freedom Fighter party has received another hit from its member, Mpho Morolane who announced his resignation in an official statement released this Wednesday.
Morolane who was a founding president of the EFFSC said in the letter addressed to the EFF Secretary-General that the reason for his departure is the “unprecedented challenges to the July Movement”.
“The pain one endured in decisions taken by the upper structure in relation to one’s tenure as the inaugural president of the student command has never warranted from one’s end disrespect to senior leadership.”
“This epoch has presented unprecedented challenges to the July movement and thus my conscious decision to fully relinquish my membership and participation brings deep sorrow infused with joy,” he wrote.
“One expects the decision be respected and accepted. Furthermore, the vitriol that is to descend upon one once the realisation of my departure from the organisation has set will equally be accepted, for after every storm comes calm, there we will all meet in the united pursuit for the return of the land and economic freedom in our lifetime.”
Mpho spoke about his commitment to the political party and expressed the pain felt as he decides to part ways after 10 years of work in EFF.
“It is with great difficulty that one has decided to step away from a decade-long affiliation with the EFF. My service has been with humility, integrity and respect.”
