The controversial and self-proclaimed president of Amabhinca (Zulu traditionalists), Ngizwe Mchunu, used a platform in Port Shepstone in southern KwaZulu-Natal to take a jab at his “enemies”, including the EFF.

Mchunu was in the coastal town to receive an early Christmas gift in the form of a car from the Chinese car dealership, JAC Motors.

The company said it was thanking Mchunu for the “business” he generated for it when he was its ambassador until December 2023.

The former radio presenter’s partnership with the company ended when the EFF piled pressure to have it cancelled after he made comments that were deemed to have tribal undertones.

In one of the comments in Durban, Mchunu said EFF leader Julius Malema should campaign in Limpopo where other “Shangaans” live, not in KwaZulu-Natal.

Given a platform to speak after he got the car, Mchunu took a swipe at his enemies in the maskandi music industry and the EFF.

“I am saying Cain and Nzuzo (maskandi figures) must buy a rope and hang themselves, it’s over for them now. I am here, ziyakhala manje,” Mchunu said.

Taking aim at the EFF, he said the party had to fight him personally because he was too strong for them to defeat politically.

“They were attacking me personally… away with enemies, they must go to jail, the enemy has been finally defeated” Mchunu claimed during his speech.

By the jail jab, he was referring to Malema who is facing charges of firing a gun in public. If convicted, the EFF leader could be sentenced to jail for many years.
