On Sunday, newspapers reported that he was barred from the party"s elective conference in December.

According to City Press, Ndlozi has missed a number of EFF activities.

He was also not present at the party"s central command team meeting in Sandton over the weekend.

This could be an indication that there is trouble afoot.

In a post on X on 17 November, EFF MP Sinawo Tambo said the EFF was being dragged through the mud daily over speculation of Ndlozi"s possible departure.

Some EFF members and leaders believe Ndlozi will follow other leaders who have joined u Mkhonto we Sizwe party (MK).

"Our organisation cannot be dragged through the mud daily in your name and you keep quiet as if you have no capacity to talk," he said.
