Mlamli Makhetha

At the EFF's provincial conference in October 2018, Makhetha was elected as the party's provincial secretary.^[1] He was elected to the Eastern Cape Provincial Legislature in the 2019 election.^[2]

Makhetha was elected as the deputy provincial chairperson of the EFF at the party's provincial conference held in November 2022, however, shortly afterwards Makhetha was forced out of his position and replaced with Nokuthula Mlokoti after the EFF War Council resolved to reconfigure the provincial leadership because no woman was elected to any of the contested positions and EFF president Julius Malema expressed his disappointment at the conference's results.^[3] He resigned from the provincial legislature in February 2023.^[4]
