Gupta loyalist and leader of the Black First Land First movement (BLF) Andile Mngxitama has taken aim at 702 radio presenter and award-winning journalist and author Eusebius Mckaiser; as part of his campaign against, well… anyone who’d dare expose him or his paymasters for the crooks they are.

Andile has made a habit of putting his foot in it at every opportunity and has been a constant in the news thanks to his organisation’s obsession with moral bankruptcy and the limelight that goes with it.

He and his cabal even went as far as physically intimidating and harassing senior journalists, which prompted legal action by the South African National Editor’s Forum (Sanef) which sought an urgent interdict against his organisation’s foolishness — dangerous, but still foolish at the end of the day –.

Despite the looming legal implications of his actions, Andile refused to relent and, well… took to Twitter — that age-old platform for dumbassery — to sling a slur Mckaiser’s way; accusing the journalist of suffering from Lekgowa Laka, according to the Tweet a mental illness suffered by black people.

You might think this is the dumbest thing Andile has done so far, but then you’d be forgetting that he also blamed the severe storms that hit the Cape a while back on White Monopoly Capital.
