Why is Jub Jub silent about MK matters?

As drama within the uMkhonto we Sizwe Party (MK Party) mounts, South Africans on social media are asking why the controversial TV host, Jub Jub, suddenly went AWOL.

Another week, another MK party drama! Keeping with the trend of making headlines for all the wrong reasons, the latest with the MK Party sees Duduzile Zuma and Nhlamulo Ndhlela in the hot seat. John Hlophe penned a letter to Jacob Zuma, detailing why he thinks the two members have bad conduct during meetings.

A few headlines ago, former Secretary General Floyd Shivambu made jaw-dropping allegations in an interview after he was axed. This resulted in him facing a lawsuit from Ndhlela.

"Jub jub was looking for a parliamentary gig to pay his bills but Zuma ignored him like he never existed. Boooooom back to Uyajola9/9with a basic salary of R20k per month, which can't settle all his debts. Bet he thought R105k per month in parliament would have been perfect to keep him sustained."

@mfekasbo argued:

"MK will bounce back. It's just in a revival stage of selecting the real leaders and opportunists."

@McebisiMbusi said:

"They were so excited...now things are heating up. The EFF is more experienced, boys."

"He was fine there while we were cheating in peace. Now, he will come for us cheaters."

"The problem here is that people move with the trends. They join parties based on popularity. They know nothing about the struggle."
