Cape Town – Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla, daughter of former South African president Jacob Zuma, has come under heavy criticism after insulting MK Party Secretary-General Floyd Shivambu on social media.
She posted an expletive-laden message calling him the “worst thing” to happen to the party.

She also referred to him as “useless” and expressed her willingness to be expelled from the party.

Her actions were quickly condemned, with Zuma reprimanding her and threatening expulsion unless she apologises.
MK Party supporters voiced their anger, accusing Zuma-Sambudla of lacking political experience and being a product of nepotism.
They also expressed support for Shivambu, with some warning that her behaviour could harm the party.
Critics argue that she is disrupting the MK Party’s progress and abusing her father’s influence.
Take a look at some of the reactions on X.
Apology is not enough for such disrespect. We can’t be bullied by Dudu.. she must be expropriated her responsibilities. We are of the people not the so called ” Co founders “.

Duduzile Zuma is no politician; she is enjoying her father’s hard labour with that Parliamentary MK Party gig.🤞 pic.twitter.com/TPimVQuXAR

If indeed she posted those statement, She must be expelled. She has undermined all efforts by all the people who sacrificed almost everything to get MKP to be what it is today.

We are not confused. Floyd Shivambu will lead the Mk party. They failed to tarnish his image, and they will fail to infiltrate us. pic.twitter.com/RZdZXPJQp4
