Following the successful anti-immigration priests across South Africa, March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma has finally addressed African National Congress (ANC) Fikile Mbalula after he accused it of being funded by former President and Umkhonto WeSizwe Party (MKP) leaderJacob Zuma.

Mbalula made the accusations during his speech when he was giving the media an update after they held the ANC National Working Committee (NWC) meeting.

On Wednesday Ngobese-Zuma who has been avoiding to enter into a verbal boxing ring with Mbalula decided to address him after he accused her of meeting the MK Party leadership without Ngizwe Mchunu and Phakelumthakathi Ndabandaba.

“I told you guys that the issue here is not March and March but the fear of Jacob Zuma. Those who are close to Fikile Mbalula please can you tell him that we met with his leadership in Ethekwini when we had our first March and they refused to be part of the March, now when March and March has grown to be this big from nothing suddenly he pulls out a picture of us having met with the MK? Why not pull out a picture when we met with Action SA, IFP, DA, ,Afrika Mayibuye, ATM, Operation Dudula because we have met with ALOT of political parties and leaders, including ANC??

“So the issue is having met with MK? How many times have we sent our grievances to the ANC and they Ignore March and March and then decided who they want to meet because they don’t have the surname Zuma? The ANC issued a statement when I was fired and said they welcome me being fired? Now you want to make it seem like this is political?” she wrote angrily.

Ngobese-Zuma said the President of the country (Cyril Ramaphosa) is the President and they only wanted to meet him to address the immigration issue not because they wanted a photo op with him.

“So if he chooses to not see us that’s not a loss to us really! We organised those marches without the ANC. When we started March and March it was a joke to many of you! You Fikile even went on TV and asked who I am? Now after we organised a nation wide protest you are trying to make it seem as though we were doing things in silence or behind the peoples back to meet certain people?

“Everyone knows we have met several political parties and we have explained why. You failed with labelling us vigilantes, you failed with the tribalism, now you want to keep aligning us with MK so you can prove a point that this is not a genuine organisation? Goodluck with what you are trying to do Bhuti but please be honest when you are addressing issues,” she said.

Earlier on the day Mbalula went on X and posted a picture of Ngobese-Zuma and her husband and questioned why everybody did not make a noise when they met Nathi Nhleko without Ngizwe and Phakelumthakathi.
