Ntsiki Mazwai declares support for MK Party
A little over a month before the elections, many people exercise their political views and declare support for their chosen parties.
Briefly News reported that Manqoba "Khulu" Skenjana made it known that he's an active supporter of the uMkhonto weSizwe Party.
Excluding former president Jacob Zuma from general elections disadvantages him, MK party: Dali Mpofu
Speaking to the publication, Khulu said he suspects fellow creatives are afraid of declaring their support for the party for fear of being blackballed:
"I have seen several public figures publicly showing their support for the parties they stand with. With the MK Party, there appears to be a fear of being stigmatised."
However, outspoken activist Ntsiki Mazwai officially declared that she, too, supports the MK Party.
Taking to her Twitter (X) page, Miss Mazwai revealed that, unlike other political parties, the MK Party spoke to her:
"MK is the only party which speaks to me. The other parties are too white-baas-created with black faces. MK is authentic."

"You're right, Ntsiki. MK is authentic 'cause they are not funded by the Oppenheimer family like other parties, including the ruling party."
Odwa_Mniki gushed over Ntsiki:
"Every day I love you more, mnkam."

"Good choice."
Meanwhile, some netizens threw shade at Ntsiki and questioned the MK Party's policies:
Mtho2go was surprised:
"Is it the same MK that says pregnant teens will be sent to Robben Island when it takes over?"
Magezi asked:
"Authentic with an 82-year-old leader?"
AmukelaniMoyani was stunned:
"Jacob Zuma is gone! Why would anybody want to follow an old man who was a failure for ten years as a president?"
