I know who Mbeki will vote for - Zuma
29 July 2016
Brits - President Jacob Zuma says he knows who former president Thabo Mbeki will vote for, even if he refuses to campaign for the African National Congress.
Zuma has for the first time spoken out about Mbeki’s refusal, again, to campaign for the ANC in the 2016 local government elections.
Mbeki has not campaigned for the ANC in previous elections either, but has made rare appearances on ANC stages, like during the party’s centenary celebrations in Bloemfontein in 2012.
Addressing journalists during a whistle-stop campaign in Maboloka, north of Brits, on Thursday, Zuma said it was Mbeki’s choice as an individual not to campaign for the party.
