JOHANNESBURG - The ANC's head of elections Fikile Mbalula on Friday described his visit at the Guptas' Saxonwold compound where he was served "lots of curry", saying that he stood his ground and would not be manipulated by the controversial family.
"He offered me some curry there [at Saxonwold] before we could talk. I think it’s their culture that before you talk to them, you eat curry. This thing that you see in the public domain that people ate curry there is not a joke. It's true, you eat curry there..." said Mbalula. The Press Ombudsman found that the story did not meet the Press Code requirements and instructed the newspaper to apologise to Mbalula.
Mbalula did not tell Madonsela about Gupta's phone call telling him he will be appointed sports minister.
🤣🤣🤣👍
Thats an old trick. Make the curry extra hot, then one cant speak.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

To them the ANC is more important than the country.
