The Allied Movement for Change (AM4C) is a minor political party in South Africa. The party was founded by Ahmed Munzoor Shaik Emam, a former NFP member and businessman. The party was launched in March 2024 in Johannesburg.[1]

History

Origin

The AM4C was founded in 2024 by a group of individuals who broke away from the National Freedom Party (NFP). The AM4C's ideology is centered around socialism. Its policies focus on economic empowerment, land reform, and social justice.[2]

Current structure and composition

The AMCP has a central committee led by Ahmed Munzoor Shaik Emam as the president, with a secretary-general and other office bearers. The party has a small presence in a few provinces, with most of its support coming from the Gauteng Province.[3][4][5]
