We welcome all the members of the media who have graced this press conference. It is this kind of constructive partnership that will take South Africa forward.

Post the elections 2019, ATM is continuing the work we started in June 2018 when we first registered the African Transformation Movement (ATM) with the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) of South Africa.

The journey we walked from then till now has been a rather challenging one, where we saw our movement grow sturdily and sustainably, this was confirmation enough that we are stepping towards the right direction.

We sailed from nowhere with limited resources and no long history nor established brand and delivered a campaign that saw us gaining two (2) seats in the General Assembly and a further two (2) seats in the Provincial Legislatures, one in Eastern Cape and another in KwaZulu-Natal Legislature, respectively.

For all this, we owe thanks to all our stakeholders that made it possible; the leadership of ATM, media, supporting organisations, allies, unions and most of all, the members of ATM who committed wholeheartedly to the cause of transforming South Africa for the better.
