  1. Incase yall forget
    If u vote anc
    We keep suffering
    And if we vote eff and you not black you will be kicked out of the country
    If we vote Da we could see an a bad time again so Zuma seems to be the only way

  2. All disastrous for our economy, our people, and the liberty we fought for. What a shame and disgrace for the sacrifices of President Nelson Mandela, alongside the many leaders with integrity and genuine interest for our people. Now it is all about who gets to the monetary coffers first. Greed, power, fraud and corruption has taken a priority in our political landscape. This is not fear mongering, even our very judicial system has been weaponized and our criminal system failing. There's hope in few of the 52 parties. Know them and their leaders. On 29th May 2024, exercise our right and vote for a party which we know fight for the people of our land! Vote with integrity and be proud of it.

  3. Think about it people, contempt of court is nothing compared to all the other crimes that he has committed but never was charged for. Starting with the arms deal, the rape and selling South Africa to Guptas. There are over 70 charges against him and it is impossible that every one of them was dreamt up by someone. He should just give up politics and enjoy life with his grandchildren.

  4. Funny how far they can go just to continue with neocolonialism, inequality and oppression of South African natives. This doesn't change anything though, the struggle for TRUE FREEDOM continues.

  5. Interesting outcomes. Obviously those judges would have never overruled themselves. For MK party I really didn't think Zuma wanted to go to Parliament in the expense of his Presidential benefits. The was no way.

  6. I dont agree!!! There r more corrupt and dangerous ppl that r members of parliament than he ever was, its not like he is going 2 b president again. His experience in national assembly could be valuable.

  7. No one is bigger than the law. The dance should no when to leave the stage. Mtshiniwam want to dance forever. This will create internal fighting . Will Khumalo allow anyone to lead the party in parliament.

  8. I love the response of mk spokesman during interview saying they don't bother what the court says but as mk that doesn't mean that Zuma will not become a president

  9. man you guys are so short sighted it doesn't mean that he can not be part of MK or that they cannot contest or that if they win he can not be a minister or have influence over their chosen candidate. it is just an attempt to discourage voters and they would not do so if they were sure that his not a threat to them eating off the state, phela this is the same 500 billion guy who admitted that people misused funds four years ago and still no one is in jail, he himself fired and hired so he could get away with the 4 million dollar SARS scandal, National debt has increased by a staggering 126% in the last by going from about 2.4 trillion rands to 5.2 trillion in his term, then he wants to blame it all on covid yes it played a part but it was not entirely because of covid nor does majority of the debt come from that if you just follow the money you will see.

  10. This ConCourt judgment is academic.
    Zuma will be on the Ballot come 29 May 2024, for MK Party voters that's all that matters. And they are not worried about the ConCourt judgment at all. Zuma just said it yesterday that he is not going to Parliament as an NEC of MK.
