SACP Special Central Committee Statement

Thursday, 29 January 2026: -  On 23 January 2026, the South African Communist Party (SACP) held a Special Central Committee meeting in Braamfontein, Johannesburg. The meeting addressed the organisation’s overall state and specifically the state of the Moses Mabhida province of the SACP (KwaZulu Natal).

Having received a detailed report on the operations of the organisation in Moses Mabhida province and after an in-depth discussion on the report, the Central Committee resolved to confirm the decision of the SACP Politburo of 31 October 2025 to disband the Provincial Executive Committee of Moses Mabhida and establish a provincial interim leadership core.

To that end, the Special Central Committee has finalised the decision relating to the status of the erstwhile leadership structure of Moses Mabhida as that of a disbanded structure replaced by an interim leadership core whose mandate is to organise a provincial congress where a new provincial executive committee will be elected. The Special Central Committee adopted a draft plan aimed towards reviving the organisation in Moses Mabhida.
