I'm vindicated when I say mngxitama is a bliksem span for Zuma, he must learn to leave politics to politicians

BLF...not many people thought about voting for the Guptas again...sorry!

Empty cans make the biggest noise ! 95% if SAcans are peaceful loving people. The other enjoy being goaded in verbal and physical fights when media is around to blow it out of proportion.

The devils buddy.

Awwww. Did someone not get what they want and now they're throwing their toys out of the cot? Shame baby.

They've made too much noise before elections - for nothing - already. Now we can't take these guys seriously, at all. They are not leadership material.

If your Party got smaller votes than the spoilt votes, seat down, citizens chose to spoil their votes over you 😅😅😅

Hopefully they can afford legal representation.

That will be augur very well for BLF, I guess. Anything door gets you in, even if it's the back one.

Which stupid lawyer will take that?

I support them! 🤣😌i just wana see Hlaudi in parliament!
