Steyn von Ronge (sometimes written as Steyn van Ronge) (born 1955) is the president of the Afrikaner Resistance Movement (AWB). Von Ronge was the deputy leader of the AWB who took over the reins after Eugene Terre'Blanche, the founding president, was murdered in 2010. He had previously acted as leader of the AWB when Terre'Blanche was in prison.
His goals are the establishment of a white homeland and a security plan to protect farmers against farm attacks.
Von Ronge is a cattle farmer in the Zastron district, in southern Free State. He joined the AWB in 1988.
Terre'Blanche allegedly promised the AWB leadership to both Von Rönge and Andre Visagie, the AWB's then secretary general. However, Von Rönge could provide proof of his appointment with a fax signed on 12 March 2010 with two witnesses in which Eugene asks Van Ronge to take over the leadership until he has recovered from his heart surgery.
