Outspoken armchair political commentator Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla had her latest outburst on social media on Tuesday following the arrest and release of another alleged unrest instigator.
It comes a day after controversial social media fire-starter, Zamaswazi Zinhle Majozi, was granted bail following a weekend spent in jail on charges of inciting public violence.
Heading online, Zuma-Sambudla stated:
"Comrades, They Will Try And Intimidate Us By Using State Organs And Arresting Us …We See Them…The Fight Continues. Even If It Means Being Arrested…They Can’t Arrest Us All! #SphithiphithiEvaluator."

The post, as most on social media would agree, left no room for interpretation. It came despite the Germiston Magistrate's Court's decision to grant Majozi bail.
The 36-year-old woman, better known as 'Sphithiphithi Evaluator' under the username @_AfricanSoil on Twitter, pleaded on the basis that she has two young children, one of whom she is currently breastfeeding.
Zuma-Sambudla rant greeted with criticism
Zuma-Sambudla's tweet garnered nearly 600 in five hours but received widespread backlash from Mzansi social media users.

Court grants alleged unrest instigator bail, bars accused from all social media activity
In related news, Briefly News recently reported that Themba Mnisi, one of the alleged masterminds of the scenes of public violence and looting in July, has been released on bail by the Vereeniging Magistrate's Court.
Mnisi was granted R40 000 bail and ordered to refrain from all social media activity, including WhatsApp, where he allegedly mobilised for police officers to be disarmed and attacked in their homes.
In the accused's first appearance in court, the court heard that he allegedly called for police stations to be torched, per a News24 report.
Briefly News understands Mnisi, who is the ANC organiser in the Sedibeng Region, was instructed to report to the nearest police station three times a week.
