The party merged with Agang to contest the 2014 general election. After the problems in that party, it contested the 2016 municipal elections, aiming to rescue the Thulamela Local Municipality and govern with traditional leaders. It finished seventh in the municipality in 2016, and fifth in 2021, winning one seat on both occasions.^[2][3]

The party is socially conservative, is against same-sex marriage and in favour of the right to administer corporal discipline to children.^[4] It is against land expropriation without compensation, and wants to replace Black Economic Empowerment with economic empowerment based on poverty rather than race.^[5][6]

The party also states that it would deport what it describes as "illegal foreigners".^[7]

The party contested the 2019 general election, failing to win any seats.
