Thembekile Richard Majola is a South African politician who served as a Member of the National Assembly of South Africa for the Democratic Alliance (DA) from 2014 until his resignation from the party in 2024. He was the deputy speaker of the Western Cape Provincial Parliament from 2009 to 2012 and the speaker from 2012 to 2014.
