## TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT TO APPROACH CONSTITUTIONAL COURT OVER ALLEGED ELECTION IRREGULARITIES
**7 November 2026**
The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TRUTH), under the leadership of President Mehmet Vefa Dag, has resolved to pursue urgent legal action in response to serious concerns and alleged irregularities surrounding the recent election counting process.
The Movement is preparing to approach the Constitutional Court to seek urgent intervention, including an interdict preventing the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) from gazetting the final national election results until the outstanding complaints and disputed results have been properly investigated and addressed.
**WARD 48 AND WARD 47: SERIOUS CONCERNS**
The Movement has identified significant concerns regarding the counting and recording of votes in Cape Town, particularly:
- **Ward 48:** TRUTH maintains that its records and available evidence indicate that the Movement won Ward 48.
- **Ward 47:** TRUTH maintains that it secured second position.
We have evidence that we believe warrants independent scrutiny. We will submit the relevant documentation, counting records and supporting material through the appropriate legal channels.
**WE DEMAND TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY**
An election is the foundation of democracy. Every vote must be counted accurately, transparently and in accordance with electoral law.
No political party should be expected to accept disputed results without proper explanations and an opportunity for its complaints to be investigated.
Our position is clear:
1. All disputed voting stations must be independently investigated.
2. Relevant ballot papers, counting records and result slips must be examined.
3. Allegations of counting irregularities must receive a proper investigation.
4. The IEC must account for discrepancies raised by political parties.
5. Final results should not be gazetted while material disputes remain unresolved, subject to the appropriate legal process.
**PRESIDENT MEHMET VEFA DAG: OUR FIGHT IS FOR DEMOCRACY**
President Mehmet Vefa Dag states:
"We will not abandon the democratic rights of the people who voted for Truth and Solidarity Movement. Every vote matters. We have evidence that raises serious questions, and we intend to place that evidence before the highest court in the country.
"This is not about refusing democracy. It is about defending democracy, protecting the integrity of every ballot and ensuring that the will of the voters is respected.
"We will pursue every lawful avenue available to us. South Africans deserve an election process that is transparent, accountable and beyond question."
**TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT**
We call on the IEC to take these concerns seriously and ensure that every outstanding complaint receives proper attention.
Our commitment to justice, transparency and democratic accountability remains unwavering.
**THE PEOPLE'S VOTE MUST COUNT.
DEMOCRACY MUST BE PROTECTED.
TRUTH WILL PURSUE JUSTICE.**

**FORMAL LETTER OF COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION OF ELECTION RESULTS**
**Date:** 6 November 2026
**To:**
The Chairperson
Independent Electoral Commission (IEC)
Republic of South Africa
**CC:**
The Chief Electoral Officer
IEC Provincial Electoral Office
Political Parties and Accredited Election Observers
Members of the Media
**Subject: Serious Concerns Regarding Ballot Counting Procedures, Transparency and the Accuracy of Election Results**
Dear Chairperson,
The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TRUTH) wishes to formally place on record its serious concerns regarding the manner in which ballot papers were counted at certain voting and counting stations during the recent elections.
Our representatives and party counters witnessed circumstances that raise significant questions about the transparency, fairness and credibility of the counting process.
We wish to bring the following concerns to your urgent attention:
**1. Lack of transparency during ballot counting**
Political party representatives and counters were reportedly seated several metres away from the actual ballot-counting process. This distance made it difficult for party representatives to properly observe and independently verify how ballot papers were being examined and counted.
Furthermore, IEC officials were observed counting ballot papers with their backs turned towards the party counters, raising concerns about whether the process was sufficiently visible to those accredited to observe it.
**2. Intimidation and suppression of legitimate questions**
When questions and concerns were raised by party representatives regarding the counting procedures, they were allegedly instructed to remain silent and warned that they could be removed from the counting venue if they continued raising objections.
Political party representatives have a legitimate responsibility to observe the process and raise concerns where irregularities are suspected. They should not be intimidated or discouraged from exercising these responsibilities.
**3. Discrepancies in election figures**
We have identified significant discrepancies in the figures being reported to our movement.
In several instances, the numbers do not appear to reconcile with the registered voter figures and other available election information.
These discrepancies require proper investigation. We are not prepared to accept unexplained figures without access to the relevant documentation and a transparent verification process.
**4. Demand for independent verification and recounting**
In the interests of electoral transparency and public confidence, TRUTH formally requests:
- An independent audit of the ballot-counting process at the affected voting stations.
- An independent team of qualified data analysts to examine and reconcile the reported figures.
- A review of the relevant ballot papers, counting sheets and result slips.
- Verification of the number of registered voters, voters who participated, ballots issued, ballots cast, rejected ballots and valid votes.
- A recount at stations where discrepancies or procedural irregularities are established, in accordance with the applicable electoral procedures.
- Access to the relevant election records and documentation, subject to the law.
- An investigation into allegations that party representatives were intimidated or prevented from raising legitimate objections.
**5. Our position**
TRUTH respects the democratic process and the constitutional right of every South African to participate in free and fair elections.
However, respect for democracy also requires accountability, transparency and the accurate recording of every vote.
We cannot overlook serious concerns simply because an election has taken place. Every ballot must be accounted for, every figure must be verifiable, and every political party must be afforded a fair opportunity to observe the counting process.

### TERMINATION OF AGOA IS AN ECONOMIC ATTACK ON SOUTH AFRICAN WORKERS AND FAMILIES!
The Truth and Solidarity Movement strongly condemns any decision to terminate South Africa's participation in the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA).
This is not merely a trade disagreement. It is a decision with potentially devastating consequences for ordinary people, workers, farmers, manufacturers, exporters and thousands of families whose livelihoods depend on international trade.
**South Africa must not be punished through economic pressure while ordinary citizens pay the price.**
AGOA has provided South African businesses with preferential access to the American market. Threatening or ending these benefits risks damaging industries, undermining investor confidence and placing jobs at risk.
We reject the politics of economic intimidation. South Africa is a sovereign country. Our international relationships must be built on mutual respect, fairness and equal partnership — not threats, humiliation or economic blackmail.
However, our government must also accept responsibility. South Africa cannot afford complacency, diplomatic failures or political arrogance. Our leaders must protect the national interest and negotiate intelligently, urgently and transparently.
The Truth and Solidarity Movement demands:
1. Urgent diplomatic engagement to protect South Africa's access to the American market.
2. A transparent assessment of the potential impact on jobs, businesses and exports.
3. A comprehensive strategy to protect affected workers and industries.
4. Diversification of international trading partners to reduce economic dependence.
5. Accountability from government for any diplomatic failures that place South African livelihoods at risk.
**OUR MESSAGE IS CLEAR: SOUTH AFRICAN WORKERS MUST NOT BECOME HOSTAGES TO POLITICAL POWER GAMES!**
We will not remain silent while the livelihoods of ordinary South Africans are placed in jeopardy.
South Africa needs leadership, not excuses. We need economic solutions, not political games. We need dignity, not intimidation.
**Truth. Justice. Accountability. Solidarity.**

### 8 OCTOBER 1993: FIVE YOUNG LIVES STOLEN — APARTHEID'S CRIMES MUST NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
**Issued by: Truth and Solidarity Movement (TRUTH)**
**27 October 2026**
The Truth and Solidarity Movement remembers with profound sadness the five children and teenagers who were killed during an apartheid-era South African Defence Force (SADF) raid on a home in Northcrest, Mthatha, on 8 October 1993.
Mzwandile Mfeya (12), Sandiso Yaso/Yose (12), twin brothers Samora Mpendulo (16) and Sadat Mpendulo (16), and Thando Mthembu (17) were children with lives to live, dreams to pursue and families who loved them. They were killed while sleeping in their beds.
**Five young lives. Five stolen futures. Five families left with unbearable grief.**
According to the account of the incident, the military raid targeted a home belonging to the Mpendulo family on the basis of intelligence alleging that it was being used as an Azanian People's Liberation Army (APLA) arms cache and transit facility. The operation was reportedly authorised by then-State President F.W. de Klerk and the State Security Council.
These allegations and the circumstances surrounding the raid demand careful historical scrutiny and an unflinching commitment to truth. No family should have to carry the pain of losing children while the country struggles to confront the full legacy of apartheid-era state violence.
### APARTHEID WAS NOT JUST A SYSTEM OF DISCRIMINATION — IT WAS A SYSTEM OF STATE VIOLENCE
The Truth and Solidarity Movement condemns the killing of children and the use of military power in circumstances that cost innocent young people their lives. The deaths of these five children stand as a painful reminder of the human cost of apartheid and the devastating consequences of decisions made by those who exercised political and military authority.
We reject any attempt to erase these victims from South Africa's history. Their names must be remembered, their families treated with dignity, and the circumstances of their deaths preserved for future generations.
### OUR DEMANDS
The Truth and Solidarity Movement calls for:
1. **Historical truth:** A transparent public record of the raid, the intelligence used to justify it, and the decisions that led to the operation.
2. **Accountability:** Continued scrutiny of the roles and responsibilities of those involved, consistent with the available evidence and the law.
3. **Dignity for the victims:** Recognition of the five children and meaningful engagement with their surviving families and communities.
4. **Education and remembrance:** The inclusion of this tragedy in South Africa's historical memory so that future generations understand the human cost of apartheid.
5. **Justice without discrimination:** A country in which every life matters and no family is denied dignity because of its race, class or political circumstances.
### WE REMEMBER. WE MOURN. WE DEMAND JUSTICE.
To the families of Mzwandile Mfeya, Sandiso Yaso/Yose, Samora Mpendulo, Sadat Mpendulo and Thando Mthembu: your children must never be reduced to footnotes in history. Their names deserve to be spoken, their lives deserve to be remembered, and their deaths deserve the fullest possible historical examination.
South Africa cannot build genuine reconciliation on silence, selective remembrance or the denial of suffering. Reconciliation requires truth, acknowledgement, accountability and respect for every victim.
The Truth and Solidarity Movement stands for a South Africa in which the lives of children are protected, state power is accountable, and the pain of families is never dismissed.
**Never forget the five children of Northcrest. Never forget the victims of apartheid. Never surrender the pursuit of truth and justice.**
*May their memories endure, and may their families find strength and peace.*
**TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT**
*Truth. Justice. Solidarity.*

### JUSTICE FOR THE UGANDAN NATIONAL — DEMAND FOR IMMEDIATE POLICE INVESTIGATION
The Truth and Solidarity Movement strongly condemns the reported killing of a Ugandan national in Durban.
We are deeply disturbed by allegations that an innocent Ugandan visitor, reportedly in South Africa legally as a tourist, lost his life amid anti-foreign-national hostility.
We demand that SAPS urgently investigate the circumstances of his death, identify everyone responsible, and make arrests wherever sufficient evidence exists.
We specifically call for an investigation into any alleged involvement of Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, including whether any statements, instructions or actions contributed unlawfully to the violence. If credible evidence establishes criminal responsibility, she must face arrest and prosecution in accordance with South African law.
No individual or political movement is above the law.

### TRUTH CONDEMNS THE KILLING OF SAPS OFFICER EUNICE NORTMAN — DEMANDS JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TRUTH) expresses its deepest condolences and profound sorrow following the reported killing of **SAPS Administrative Officer Eunice Nortman**, attached to the Lichtenburg Crime Intelligence Gathering (CIG) unit, whose end of watch is recorded as 19 October 2026.
The loss of a member of the South African Police Service is a tragedy not only for the family and colleagues of the deceased, but for the entire nation.
**WE DEMAND JUSTICE FOR EUNICE NORTMAN!**
TRUTH strongly condemns the continuing violence and criminal attacks affecting South African communities and law-enforcement personnel.
If criminal violence caused Officer Nortman's death, those responsible must be identified, arrested, prosecuted and held fully accountable under South African law.
We call upon the Minister of Police, SAPS national leadership and relevant investigative authorities to:
1. Conduct an urgent, independent and thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Officer Nortman's death.
2. Identify and arrest all perpetrators where evidence of criminal conduct exists.
3. Ensure that the investigation is transparent and that the family receives regular updates.
4. Strengthen protection for police officers and intelligence personnel.
5. Provide appropriate support to the bereaved family and colleagues.
### OUR MESSAGE IS CLEAR: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
South Africa cannot become a country where criminals operate without fear of accountability.
The Truth and Solidarity Movement stands firmly for the protection of innocent lives, the safety of our police officers and the restoration of law and order.
We honour the service of Officer Eunice Nortman and extend our heartfelt sympathy to her loved ones.
**REST IN PEACE, OFFICER EUNICE NORTMAN.**

Useless mayor , 15 days to go
We caught robbers with an illegal firearm who had just robbed two residents in the streets of Tafelsig. Cape Town Metro Police are searching for illegal guns in Mitchells Plain 👮♂️👏
SAPS need their help, that’s why we will build a Cape Town Metro Police Detective Unit to ensure that we can get convictions for gun cases instead of constantly letting criminals back onto the streets. 🇿🇦
