Rise Mzansi’s national chairperson, Vuyiswa Ramokgopa says the party is offering a practical solution to the challenges that South Africans are facing. She was addressing party members at the launch of Rise Mzansi’s manifesto at the Heartfeld arena in Tshwane, Pretoria.
Since its establishment in April last year, Rise Mzansi, which Songezo Zibi is leading has been on a mission to engage urban and rural communities across South Africa.
Ramokgopa says the manifesto speaks to issues including growing the economy, creating jobs and alleviating poverty.
“We are facing a leadership crisis in South Africa, leaders that we have do not have the capability, the confidence and the will to craft a vision and a future for our country. So, we need a radical change of leadership and our own personal standards as a society as what we deem as a leader in our own personal domain. That is a big project for us and so we are saying that we have made a lot of proposals as to how we intend to restructure government and how we seek to ensure that we are able to source the best to lead us in the political sphere.”
