Transcription

Early life

Ndlozi grew up in Gauteng in the Vaal area of Evaton. He was brought into political consciousness in 1992 when his uncle was jailed by the apartheid police force for his involvement in the underground activities of the liberation movement.[citation needed]

His own participation in mainstream politics came in the form of participation in youth movements while he was a student at the University of the Witwatersrand.[citation needed] He joined the South African Students Congress (SASCO), the African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL), and the Young Communist League (YCL).[citation needed] Ndlozi served in the Palestinian and Cuban international solidarity movements.[citation needed] In 2013, he was involved in the “No Obama Campaign” that was initiated by some youth political congresses in the country.[citation needed].

In 2017, he completed his PhD in Political Studies at the University of the Witwatersrand.[2][3]

Political career

In joining the Fifth Parliament as a new MP, he said: "I am looking forward to making sure that strict accountability is revived on the executive, that Parliament returns to the people – that the people follow Parliament's developments and that as MPs we represent the citizens and their interests well. I hope in the next five years, to expose that the ruling party has no ideological framework to take South Africa beyond the political freedoms it won and that instead, under pressure from the opposition, it will start to undermine these freedoms. Above all, I want to show that an agenda, based only on seven cardinal pillars of the EFF, can take South Africa to economic freedom and sustainable development."[citation needed]

Ndlozi, Julius Malema and Floyd Shivambu, along with the rest of the Economic Freedom Fighters parliamentary members, were thrown out of parliament for disrespecting president Jacob Zuma during his State of The Nation Address in 2015[4] and 2016. They have subsequently, at other sittings of the House, been removed from the National Assembly by the Parliamentary Protection Services. The EFF's removal from the National Assembly relates to the South African Constitutional Court finding that President Jacob Zuma had failed to respect and uphold the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa. In the sitting of the National Assembly from which the EFF were ejected the premise of the disruption by the EFF had been the ineligibility of President Jacob Zuma to address the National Assembly as the EFF believed the judgement by the Constitutional Court of South Africa had illustrated the flouting of the oath of office which give the President his authority of office and therefore standing in the National Assembly.[citation needed]

Following the South African team's victory at the 2019 Rugby World Cup he stated that only the black players deserved praise for the win and that the white players could seek praise from the United Kingdom.[5]

Controversy

Ndlozi and EFF president Julius Malema were involved in an alleged assault of a police officer at Winnie-Madikizela-Mandela's funeral in 2018. The National Prosecuting Authority submitted that they are ready to proceed with charges of common assault against Ndlozi and Malema.[6]

Ndlozi defended the actions of EFF members during the Clicks Protests, whereby an EFF group of men harassed and pushed a female interviewer when she attempted to conduct an interview with protestors. The South African National Editors’ Forum (Sanef) criticized the actions of the EFF members as "appalling" and "misogynistic".[7][8] The Commission for Gender Equality (CGE) stated that it would investigate a complaint after Ndlozi defended the harassment of a female journalist. Ndlozi described the incident as "merely touching" the interviewer, but summarily retracted the statement after public outcry regarding GBV and after a complaint was instituted at the CGE.[9] The CGE took note of Ndlozi's apology.

Education

Ndlozi started his humanities degree at the University of Witwatersrand in 2004.[10] He obtained his PhD in Political Science from Wits in 2017.[11][12][13][14]

Awards

Ndlozi has been named the Most Influential Young South African for 2017.[15]
