In just its first general elections, the MK Party managed to gather the third most votes in the country.
MK Party supporter, Ronald Mabuza, said that frustration with the ANC government led him towards the organisation.
"It’s clear to see people love the MK Party. The party fights for the black community. Our president, Msholozi, has always been at the forefront of fighting for black people."
Another supporter, Ayanda Vena, said the MK Party would replace the Government of National Unity (GNU).
"The ANC and its GNU must go. The MK Party is here, and it shall govern."
Zuma will give the keynote address on Saturday afternoon.
Bab’ Mabuza said he doesn’t believe MK Party leader, Jacob Zuma genuinely wants to return to the ANC.
