A fresh wave of public anger has hit Ngizwe Mchunu after a video of his latest interaction with a white woman surfaced online on 26 June 2026. The footage, captured inside a clothing store, shows Mchunu engaging in a remarkably relaxed and friendly conversation with the woman. However, it was his statements that quickly sparked a heated debate.

Mchunu is heard informing the woman that "Everything is in order, they are going." He goes on to boast about the strides he has made in Durban through his anti-illegal immigrant campaign.

"Have you seen in Durban? I've asked the mayor of the city that they must fill up Kwerekwere in the Moses Mabhida Stadium."

The word "Kwerekwere" is a deeply offensive and derogatory slang term used to dehumanise African foreign nationals in South Africa. Surprisingly, despite the remarks, the woman appeared completely star-struck by the former Ukhozi FM presenter and eagerly asked to take a picture with him, a request the outspoken activist happily obliged.

While it remains unverified whether the woman in the video is a South African citizen or a foreign national, critics were quick to call out the contrast in Mchunu's behaviour. Netizens pointed out that he is consistently warm, hospitable, and accommodating toward white individuals, yet maintains a notoriously aggressive and hostile stance against Black foreign nationals.

This latest incident amplified the tension surrounding Mchunu's ongoing anti-illegal immigration campaigns. The timing of the video is particularly volatile, as it arrives just days before the highly publicised and tense 30 June national shutdown.

Organised by citizen-led movements, particularly the March and March campaign, to demand the removal of undocumented immigrants, the upcoming shutdown has already drawn strict warnings from the government. Critics argue that Mchunu’s cosying up to white citizens, or potential white foreign nationals, while fueling a hostile climate against fellow Africans, exposes a deep hypocrisy at the centre of his political campaign.
