Mpofu slams ANC ‘fools’ who mock that Ringo is now an EFF MP

The EFF national chairperson thanked kwaito star Eugene Mthethwa for a post aimed at ANC members ‘being mean’ to Ringo Madlingozi.

EFF national chairperson Dali Mpofu took to Twitter on Thursday to thank kwaito star Eugene Mthethwa for a post taking ANC members to task for “being mean” to singer-turned-politician Ringo Madlingozi, who is now an EFF MP. “Thank you [cadre] Eugene,” Mpofu responded. “Only fools can laugh at the political bankruptcy of those who seek to mock the presence of a cultural giant such as Ringo in our parliament.”

According to Mpofu, those mocking Ringo “can’t grasp the roles” of other musicians in “our struggle”, mentioning Miriam Makeba, Hugh Masekela, Caiphus Semenya, Letta Mbulu, Mzwakhe Mbuli, Blondie Makhene and Jonas Gwangwa.Mthethwa’s post expressed that the kwaito star – himself an “ordinary ANC member’ – felt “disgusted” by the “reaction of our elders and leaders in the ANC” for their treatment of Ringo, which he says highlights what he resents about how SA artists are treated in general.
