Former President Jacob Zumas political party, uMkhonto weSizwe Party MK Party, has withdrawn its application against the Electoral Commission IEC at the Electoral Court, which sought to invalidate the 2024 election results.
In its application, the party sought a declaration from the Electoral Court that the elections were not free and fair, and requested that the results be set aside due to serious election irregularities.
The party further asserted that the IEC could not lawfully declare the election results as free and fair, citing 'clear evidence' of massive fraud, rigging, and manipulation in the conduct of the elections.
Last month, MK Party members boycotted the first sitting of the National Assembly and was only sworn in a week later.
The party also deliberately missed the inauguration of President Cyril Ramaphosa.
