SOCIAL MEDIA REACTS TO NGIZWE

Mchunu seemed to have touched a nerve with a number of social media users as they accused his of tribalism.

In a trending video, Mchunu demanded that Malema launch his manifesto in Limpopo as KZN is for Zulu’s.

“Who died and made Ngizwe Mchunu a Zulu spokesperson? This man is giving AmaZulu a bad name with his diarrhea spewing mouth and divisiveness. He needs to be called out. Tribalism will not be tolerated. We are all fighting one common enemy” wrote @sheabutterhun.

EFF member of parliament Sinawo Thambo, says that no tribalism will stop the party from attending the rally at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

“We are going to Moses Mabhida Stadium in KwaZulu-Natal to launch the The People’s Manifesto as led by CIC Julius Malema” says Thambo.

“No aspirant homeland leader, amateur Matanzima/Gatsha that is drunk on tribalism is going to be consulted nor is going to stop us. This is the EFF in KZN if you didn’t know!”
