MK Party walks from Polokwane to Nkandla
According to TimesLIVE, the 63-year-old Mokonyama's walk encouraged the MK Party to continue fighting its case to declare the election results invalid. This came after the party withdrew its case against Parliament, members of Parliament, the Independent Electoral Commission, and the National Speaker.
The party's Limpopo convener, Lulamile Jack, said party president Jacob Zuma would continue fighting for disadvantaged black people. Mokonyama said he loves walking, having once walked from Polokwane to Bela Bela.
