Julius Malema addresses Mmabatho and Ndlozi

This did not sit well with Malema, who took yet another shot at Ndlozi, questioning his stance and his silence regarding Floyd Shivambu's exit.

"How can someone say [that] their decision to join uMkhonto we Sizwe was the best decision ever taken, and my wife Mantwa is the first one to like such a thing? And you say, 'Julius Malema is with us' when the partner likes the things that seek to denounce the organisation and where the organisation stands. Where the relatives, cousins and siblings have declared where they stand, and you still ask yourself, 'Where does this leader stand?' Look at those around you, and you will see where this leader stands."

Netizens speculate there's band blood between Malema and Ndlozi

Reacting to this, X users speculated that there is bad blood between Malema and Ndlozi. Many also noted the treatment Julius gave Ndlozi in the clip shared on X when he asked him to open a bottle of water for him.

@DipuoMolefe5 speculated:

"They are going to leave him, one by one, watch the space."

@delani1982 claimed:

"Julius has ridiculed Dr Ndlozi so many times and reduced him to nothing."

@Zakharova_ZA alleged:

"That's more than just liking a post. Shivambu and Ndlozi have been colluding to betray Malema for a long time. Their wives and girlfriends pushed them to push the EFF to join DA's GNU for the love of blue lights. Their wives must have been paid by Ramaphosa and the WMC."
