Former transport minister Fikile Mbalula remains as vocal as ever on his favorite social media platform, X. The controversial minister used the app to mock economic freedom fighters who held a manifesto in Durban over the weekend. Mbalula opened the app and smiled when he saw a video that showed the stadium's stands noticeably more empty than most of the photos circulating on the internet.
His tweet put him in the bad books of thousands of social media users who have not forgotten his Nkandla fire pool confession.
