Ngizwe Mchunu re-emerges after fleeing KZN
The controversial radio host Ngizwe Mchunu originally hails from KwaZulu-Natal. He worried his supporters after he said that he was fearful for his life and would feel safer in the Eastern Cape.
Without providing context, Ngizwe thanked the Eastern Cape people for providing him with a safe haven.
"Oh, Ntabankulu. I'm going to Qumbu now and then go straight to Mthatha. I feel so much safe. Oh! welcome me, comrades, there in the Eastern Cape. I'm so happy. Wow! I didn't know you loved me so much. Wow!"
According to X (formerly Twitter), reporter @ZANewsFlash, Ngizwe denied allegations that he was hiding.
"UPDATE: Ngizwe Mchunu has come out for the first after the elections to say he is fine and is not in hiding."
Ngizwe addresses affiliations with ANC
The former Ukhozi FM presenter received heavy backlash when he endorsed the African National Congress (ANC). Ngizwe Mchunu endorsed the party during their election campaigns and urged people to vote for it at the Siyanqoba rally at the FNB stadium.
Netizens assumed he paid a large sum for this, but he has since denied it.
"He also denied that the ANC bribed him with money to back it ahead of the elections. He added that he would address Amabhinca in the coming days and take their questions."
