The woman proceeds to sing before Mbalula rudely snatches the microphone from her and addresses the crowd saying: “Amandla”.

Another video taken from the same event shows Mbalula telling the crowd that he is not pleased by how they are moving around and walking off as the woman sings the anthem which holds great significance.

“This is so wrong on so many levels. You don't interrupt the national anthem like that. Even Ras Dumisani who murdered the anthem on an international platform was left alone.”

@Owe2_G said:

“A top official disrespecting the national anthem.”

Video of Fikile Mbalula hilariously trying to blow out a sparkler at event has SA laughing out loud

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that South African Minister of Transport, Fikile Mbalula had Mzansi peeps shaking their heads in hysterics after mistaking a sparkler for a candle.

In a video shared on Twitter by web influencer Daniel Marven (@danielmarven), the politician is seen attempting to blow out a sparkler on a cake numerous times.

He huffs and puffs as the flame reignites, much to his dismay. Mablula eventually gives up on his failed feat.
