Magashule gifts resident food money on campaign trail in Cape Town
13 April 2019
ANC secretary general general says him gifting a resident money while on the campaign trail in Phillipi, Cape Town on Saturday was not him "buying votes" but was the "right thing to do".
Magashule was on a door-to-door campaign in the Western Cape ahead of the general elections in May.
In a video posted by the SABC on their Facebook page, Magashule is seen looking inside a resident's fridge. He then speaks to the woman who lives in the house and says "there's no food in this house" to which the woman responds "things are bad here". Magashule then reaches for his pockets and hands the woman R400.
The woman expresses her gratitude as Magashule exits her home.
