A tense podcast interview featuring Ngizwe Mchunu has set social media ablaze after the controversial figure appeared visibly flustered when pressed on the financial backing behind the March and March anti-illegal immigration movement.

The exchange took place on the Bhinca Nation Podcast, which aired on Wednesday, 5 August 2026. Seated across from his interviewer on a set kitted out with boom microphones and armchairs, Mchunu was repeatedly pressed to answer a simple yet loaded question: who funded the marches?

Rather than offering a straight answer, Mchunu deflected, raised his voice, and told the interviewer not to be angry — even as he himself grew visibly heated. He insisted that he had personal security since the 2021 unrest and pushed back against the line of questioning, saying leaders need to be held accountable, while simultaneously refusing to provide the accountability being demanded of him.

"Follow the money, it's very simple," he said at one point, in what many viewers read as an ironic deflection rather than a genuine call for transparency.

Mchunu, who was once linked to the March and March movement before distancing himself, also took aim at those who he said came to South Africa and are now dictating how things should be done — though the comments came across as scattered amid the increasingly heated back-and-forth.

Mzansi weighs in on Ngizwe Mchunu's reaction

The clip spread rapidly on X, drawing sharp commentary from users who were divided between scepticism of Mchunu and frustration with the line of questioning.

@tinomystro said:

"As much as he left March & March, he cannot expose the source of their money because he is most probably still receiving money from the funders to support his polygamous marriage whilst he doesn't have a job or a business. This guy is a joke! 😂😂😂"

@JMaedzenge added:

"And of course there are those with forked tongues who will defend him while on the other hand pretending to demand accountability from those in leadership positions."

@Franky_T_ pushed back against the framing:

"Who funds Afriforum? Who funded Ramaphosa? People mustn't start demanding things they don't ask from others just because it's back people."

@Bongmusa__ pointed out a factual issue with the interview itself:

"But they're asking the wrong person — best person to ask is Jacinta. Ngizwe is not a leader nor a member of March and March."

@PatriotWatching kept it brief:

"Nah, Ngizwe is a dodgy character."

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that Mbuyiseni Ndlozi weighed in after Israel responded to claims that it was funding the anti-illegal immigration marches organised by Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma’s March and March Movement.

Ndlozi did not respond directly to Israel but warned South Africans and urged them to understand the country’s geopolitical importance and history.
