The African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) is a South African political party founded in 1993. It is a conservative Christian party based on Biblical principles.[1] The leader of the party is Kenneth Meshoe.[2]

Following the 2016 municipal elections, the ACDP joined with the much larger Democratic Alliance (DA) and several other smaller parties to form coalition governments in Nelson Mandela Bay, Johannesburg and Tshwane.

As of 2019, the ACDP has four members in the South African Parliament, and one member each in the provincial legislatures of Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng.[3] It also has 22 municipal councillors across the country.[4]
