WATCH: RISE Mzansi aims for representation in all legislatures, Parliament
RISE Mzansi’s strategic campaign advisor, Khume Ramulifho, said on Sunday that the party is going into elections with the aim of getting seats in Parliament and provincial legislatures.
The party is hosting its final rally at Ruimsig Stadium on Sunday.
This is in preparation for the May 29 elections.
More than 5000 volunteers, supporters, organisers and leaders are expected at the gathering.
National leader Songezo Zibi is expected to deliver the keynote address, a message the party described as the final marching orders to party members.
Ramulifho said the party believes it has sufficient support after travelling to the country's nine provinces.
"The campaign has been going very well. We have managed to reach out to all of the country's nine provinces.
“That is why even the process of registering for elections in all nine provinces was smooth for us. It is a sign that South Africans have been waiting for a political alternative; the message resonates well with all South Africans.
“We are going to ensure that we get representation in all our nine provinces. We are saying that the time for using Parliament and legislature as a retirement village is over," said Ramulifho.
Earlier this year, the party hosted their election manifesto, which centred around new leadership, growing the economy, making South Africa safe.
