About Us
The Moshabi Political Party
Moshabi Party is a South African political organisation committed to serving people of every race, culture, language, faith and background across all nine provinces. The party promotes fair representation, equal opportunity and meaningful participation in all spheres of society. Membership is open to all South Africans who support these objectives.
The party emblem unites the six-pointed star with the elephant — the official symbol of Moshabi Political Party, displayed in the party colours of red, white and black.
Background
Who we are
Moshabi Party was formed to help build a South Africa in which every community is heard, respected and fairly represented. The party’s roots in the Bashabi (Lemba) community form part of its heritage, but its purpose is national: to stand for the dignity and advancement of all South Africans.
The party brings together people from different cultural, linguistic and faith communities. It advocates equal opportunity, fair access to employment and inclusive participation in public life, without prejudice or discrimination.
History
History & establishment
Moshabi Party was founded by Master (Nursing) Tshiangwa Adolphina Mani, who is the founder and President of the party. The party's manifesto was adopted by its National Assembly on 26 December 2025. The national office and headquarters are in Mankweng, Moremadi Park, Limpopo.
The party’s heritage informs its commitment to representation and dignity, while its national purpose embraces the needs and aspirations of every South African community.
Philosophy
Political philosophy
We believe democracy is strongest when all people can participate equally and when no community is excluded because of race, culture, language, religion or origin. South Africa’s diversity is a national strength.
Moshabi Party rejects tribalism, racism and all forms of discrimination. We encourage unity, mutual respect and cooperation among all communities while respecting the heritage and identity of each.
Our Vision
A South Africa where people of every race, culture, language, faith and background are recognised, respected and fairly represented in every sphere of government and society — national, provincial and local — and where everyone has a fair opportunity to contribute and thrive.
Our Mission
Our mission is to build an inclusive, people-centred South Africa by encouraging fair political representation, equal employment opportunities, responsible leadership and respect for the cultures and heritage of all communities. We work to ensure that every South African can participate in democracy and share in the country’s development.

Communities
Our commitment
Moshabi public representatives commit to serving every resident without discrimination, staying connected to their branches and communities, attending every sitting and committee, remaining reachable, and assisting people with patience and diligence. They support early childhood development centres, informal settlements, clinics and schools to identify challenges, and they may not demand money, accept private payment or do business with the municipality.
Development
National aspirations
We seek a South Africa in which people from every community have fair access to employment, public services and opportunities to develop their full potential. National development must include rural and urban communities alike, respect the country’s diverse cultures and traditional leadership, and leave no group behind.
