Floyd Shivambu says that he doesn't want the organization (Mayibuye iAfrika) to revolve around just one leader or become a personality cult. He emphasizes that everyone should have a voice, and the organization must be strong enough to survive and function even without any one…
The quality of foundational leadership, activists and volunteers Mayibuye has in the Eastern Cape is on a powerful, humbling and strategic level. We carry a real and inspiring future in the province. Let’s consolidate. The future looks bright! Mayibuye iAfrika!
