Jul 3, 2018 | Press Releases

On behalf of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the IFP, I wish to announce the appointment of additional spokespersons for the Party.

With the 2019 National and Provincial elections drawing closer, we have recognized the need to communicate more effectively.

We therefore wish to announce the appointment of Mr Mkhuleko Hlengwa MP as an additional national spokesperson to serve alongside the incumbent, the IFP’s Secretary-General, Hon. Ms Nkomo MP.

Mr Hlengwa is currently the Party’s Spokesperson on Finance and IFP Youth Brigade Chairperson. He is also a seasoned debater and communicator.

They are:

Mayor Velenkosini Hlabisa – IFP Provincial Secretary and Mayor of Big 5 Hlabisa

The Hon. Narend Singh MP – IFP Treasurer-General and Parliamentary Chief Whip

We wish our new spokespersons all the best with their new duties.

I will also serve as a Deputy National Spokesperson but will focus mainly on issues pertaining to the Office of the IFP President.
