Unfiltered | Fikile Mbalula on Jacob Zuma, 2024 elections, Unemployment
In its 112-year legacy, the ANC has established the January 8th statement, a tradition since 1972, as a pivotal moment where the national executive committee outlines the roadmap ahead.
Originally delivered by Oliver Tambo, with a focus on nation-building at the time, the ANC now finds itself struggling to uphold these principles and failing to recapture the movement's past glories amid contemporary challenges.
Good Evening, welcome to Unfiltered, IM Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh.
As South Africa inches closer to the 2024 elections, pressing issues such as unemployment, load shedding, and crime persist, while internal party conflicts simmer.
As President Ramaphosa prepares his address, the critical question remains: can South Africans entrust the ANC with another five years of power amidst lingering citizen expectations and a struggling national agenda?
To answer some of these questions we have the Secretary General of the ANC, FIkile Mbalula.

Mbalula says he will not respond but he is responding at the same time😁🤣
Jus like TD Jakes who says he won't address a lie but spends 20 mins addressing the lie..irony
He is taking us by surprise
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this Mbalula
😂😂😂😂😂
My observation too
When Derek Hanekoms and Pravin voted with Opposition to remove President Zuma, what did you do about that?
He talks too much.. he tried saying he can't comment on Gwede but he ended up responding to him😂😂😂
😂😂😂he a clown
😂😂😂😂😂😂he can't help himself
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Comedian 😂😂
Clearly ANC is divided 😂😂😂
Sifuna kuphele ngayo sikhathele iyona abaxabane bodwa kuphathe abanye
ANC got divided in Polokwane and even then Zuma was at the center of it.
Mbalula addressing Gwede while saying I won't address him ... classic
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
he does not know when to shut up...talkative boy
Typical indeed 😅
😂😂😂
Masterful interview by Dr Mpofu-Walsh
Tell every South African Mbalula is back 😂😂😂😂😂with more revelations
I rather watch Mbalula interviews than Kevin Hart😂
😂😂😂😂😂
For true. Forget Dave Chappell. These jokes write themselves
Kikiki
😂
Mbalula is a joke.He just spat and criticized Gwede in public. Mbalula is a pop idol. Nhleko responded precisely to this joke of SG. Mbalula must decide what he wants to do , politics or comedy.
The ANC is becoming a very useless organisation that I have seen in my lifetime. The current leadership seems to be clueless in terms of liberating the country further. I am disgusted with them.
The current ANC leadership better to be useless than to be useful and controlled by Guptas and Empowering Zuma's Family..
The ANC is a self-serving and self-glorifying toxic parasite.
Is becoming a useless? Lol
That is what happens unfortunately when a Political party start operating like a family business of those who are perceived to be decedants of struggle heroes and their next of kin.
To you satan
Notice to register MK as a party was published in a Government Gazette by the Government Printing Works. The ANC SGO missed the notice, hence the registration by IEC. Mbalula is the leader of the SGO.
Please repeat that again others they only follow the person by not knowing what other task are doing for the state
I think that Mbalula is the best SG the ANC has ever had! For their demise! One cannot defend the indefensible!
I get so happy when I hear Mbalula will be speaking in public being interviewed or giving a speech or answering any questions because I know in advance ANC will lose votes or be embarrassed or in most cases both.
He is crazy
Uyayibaxa.
Mbaks it's speak truth bcz Gwede once said uZuma somyeka ayodliwa ngamaxhalanga parliament not charged
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They must focus on making the difference in the lives of people not a bo Zuma and others who are against them. We are tired of people attacking servant leaders who had made a difference in people lives. Mr Mbalula attacked the leader Dr TK Mopeli whose family was in mourning after the passing of my son. You are the beneficiary of Dr Mopeli legacy. He gave you a place to live when the Bophuthatswana rejected you and not provided services. What have you done for the people. You destroyed his legacy he built in Qwaqwa. The industries, the infrastructure, roads with potholes, the stadium. You really talk too much, stop talking and respect the rule of law and upholding the constitutional rights of people. One journalist in daily sun wrote an article by EFF Provincial Secretary wo said he must apologise for urinating on the grave of Dr TK Mopeli. When you were addressing your audience, you undermined what Dr Mopell did in Qwaqwa. Karma!
"Did the ANC know at the time that it was defending ubuxoki?"😂😂😂 Yey he ducked and dive and mentioned anxiety and reports😂😂😂
I don't know how Dr Mpofu keeps a straight face Infront of this comidian 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Lol 😂😂😂😂😂
He will laugh at home
I'm dead😂
Watching this I struggle to understand how the anc still manages to convince 40%+ of South Africans to support them.
Well I can state few strong but stupid reasons which make that possible. 1. Millions of eligible voters are either leaving below poverty line or grants beneficiaries who believe that anc is their savior. 2. The top 4 poorest provinces in SA keep anc alive because of the high level of illiteracy, unemployment and obviously being brainwash by the history of their former liberators in the anc. For as long as Millions of Africans in the rural areas believe that it's normal to use pit toilets, let their kids walk kms to mud schools, then it will take a serious revolution remove them completely.
Is like we still have problem with our people, I won't say thy r illiterate but thy r not liberated and lots of things are happening in front of us looking at but only de mindset is having problem.
@MolamoMaredi-ls5sh agree with you also think it is a question of getting credible voices to those parts of our country that doesn't have the understanding of how our political system works.
My thoughts exactly 🙈
it beats me too
Mbalula is stiking on his words, the ANC lied in public
🤞🤞🤞
His saying he won't respond but he then say the chair was wrong for doing what hee did 😂😂😂
With due respect to: Mbalula, the strategic position is not his fitness.
That's what amazes me about the head leader who chose them, some people he chose to lead the ministries are worse and that says a lot about him. No wonder the country is in shambles
And when it does not work he does not reschuffle or expel them as he said that there will be reviews when he started
@@CbosEasyRecipes7the rama camp came to ruin the ANC and placing this dunce as the SG after intentional shenanigans with Magashule may be one of the things they did to ensure it .
Someone once said to me:Don't blame children when they believe in father Christmas because there are adults who still believe in the ANC. What a circus.
ANC is gone all new parties eat from anc
Zuma has outsmarted everyone in the ANC one by one.
His not going to win weight the matter it’s in court.about logo colours and name of this MK it belong to anc
MK is going to win a lot of votes from ANC supporters.
You are lying. Zuma destroyed the ANC and economy of this country.
@user-sc3tl9pm5d and the position about your Ramaphosa is worse. Ramaphosa's administration is worse than that of J Z.
Outsmarted, my foot, instead he's making a fool of himself disregarding the wisdom that grey hair declares🤓🤓🤓
You're doing well Sizwe. I like the way you've interviewed Mbalula
Interesting how this Chap had so much to say on senseless political issues. When Dr Sizwe switched to matters of national importance (jobs, economic climate, turn around strategy….etc.) he got paralysed and struggled to put sensible sentences. To illustrate lack of depth, go back to their previous interview Dr Sizwe asked the same question on economy. The least he could have done is to prepare or anticipate the line of questioning (but thats too academic for him). Sometime this week Fikile told us there is nothing wrong with anc and for the first time had to agree with him. We have created this monster and keep on feeding it with our flesh and blood. SOUTH AFRICA CATCH A WAKE UP.
Nathi Nhleko calls the SG "isiginqa thuvi"😭
😂😂😂
😂😂😂 I remember those ugly animals esibayeni sezinkomo ngisakhula.
😅😂 Eyi ungibulele uNathi ngalelo gama
Transparent leader
🤣🤣🤣🤣 A dung beetle.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mbalula is the man of the match
Mbalula is a Political comedian of our lifetime, the flip-floper of its own kind 😅
Zuma will go down history as a very divisive tribalist who thrive on tribalism
@@TM30434 No, this is untrue
But at this point is no longer funny, this is about our life and our future. ANC must fall!
@@TM30434that's not true and you know it
Malema, your leader is worse
The difference with Zuma is that he is the only former President the ANC Government arrested and locked in jail, and before that persecuted and weaponized Zondo and the Courts against him. This was inevitable. There was no way the man would peacefully demobilized without a Fight.
Hear, hear!
😮@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105
We need new leadership. ANC has failed South Africa for so many years. Thanks for pressing Sizwe you can see he’s annoyed but we don’t care at this point.
There is no honor among criminals .The cracks are showing.
I am not sure how much South Africans need to be convinced that the ANC is all about itself, and not the Country. Mbalula revealed his naivety. I am glad that he exposed the ANC to the voting public.
Its the nature of this European democratic system, .. where individual politicians, exchange their political power for money...
An honest politician, at least. If only others did this instead of dodging questions then we'd have actual answers, Mbalula is honest and open.
And dumb
@@mncedisimbele1421 How?
I'm not ANC, but indeed in the Swimming Pool part, he is talking the truth. I'm tempted to salute that🫡.
I repeat, Can media houses please keep interviewing and ensuring that SG is talking. We want him to continue to address us until elections. He's doing an excellent job. A week must not go by without hearing from the SG. Give him the mic at all costs! We want to listen to him because he represents the ANC so well. Please!
😂🔔🔔Bells, Mr. Lechesa!
I'm not an ANC supporter nor will they convince me otherwise but today we see a different Mbaks this is how you behave speak and conduct yourself as an SG atleast for today I give Mbaks 10/10 for this interview 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I think he's doing well without spectators, hence Gwede mentioned that he got carried away by cameras and the people 🤷
@@thabophetla5476 lol true put an audience infront of him Mbaks change into a motor mouth 🤦🏾♂️
Really? 10? Even after that enjoyable little caper at the beginning going at the National Chair in public? Very high standards!
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 I agree you could see he was eager to reply Mbalula way but he had to compose himself because he is already in hot water lol, but on this interview you could see he was humbled and cautioned because this was not the Mbaks we are used to lool
3:58 *I tried to contact Mantashe whole day, I can't get hold of him 5:53 *I will engage Mantashe, I am with him here in Mbombela
😂😂😂 you noticed what I noticed 😂
He can never play with Gwede
Basically he's being ignored
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 such a clawn
We can't do the same thing and expect different results we not voting the ANC. Our country is falling apart 🚮
Who's we? Speak 4self
He is not fit to be ANC Secretary General
First time hearing ANC memeber speaking the truth
Corruption is the biggest problem in our country.We need s change now👍
These comments 😁😁😁😁. Love it. I’m off to bed with big smile on my face. Day made.
Comments from the Bell Pontinger agents who were left behind when Bell Pontinger and the Guptas left this country.
The 1st to Comment. Been waiting to hear this ❤️🤗☺️... So disappointed in the whole Leadership of ANC 😭😭😭😭
Don’t take it personal politics will make you angry don’t take it serious. Politics it’s a game of fools
@@sifisodube4686 The sense of helplessness of watching old people argue as things fall apart is why I am no longer political.
Eish SG mara 🙄 all these, why now? This is free PR to the former and a distraction within. Give short and diplomatic answers.
an SG is the engine of an organization but here ANC made a historical mistake of all time
Well ANC is out... what a waste of a party!
Mbalula what goes around comes around think of what you said about Chamisa fighting on behalf of Zimbabweans you are happy to see us suffering
Indeed. He has a loose mouth
Ms Mbalula, a comedian indeed
You hit the nail on top S,G nothing wrong with being talking honesty !!!! that was a true statement from a states man !!!
This will be his downfall. He will never recover because ANC is going down
In your dreams
Mbalula: there is no leader that does as they please and there are no Demi-gods in the ANC Zuma: Hold my beer
I feel your pain🤗
😂
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 you can't, you don't have a brain
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 ANC African National Criminals are now exposing themselves, but we thank Mbalula for opening our eyes n I see war within the party . Mr Malema I am with u all the way.
Sizwe subjected Mbalula to pressure like never before
Mbalula is ryt we need open leaders like him it's true what he's saying we knew it's not fire pool
He should open up about phalaphala then 😂
@@dandyally9983 thank you so much!!
@@dandyally9983 thank you so much!!
@dandyally9983 if he can get a lot of such interviews he will end up admitting that one as well😊😅
Mxm mbaĺula president for what
50+1% they must forget about it
37:54 Former President Ramaphosa! Sizwe knows what they dont want to tell you
The swimming pool issue was an insult to the South African people. It was disrespectful and it shows that these politicians think that all South Africans are fools.
Mbalula is telling the truth but people like lies some criticizing him for telling the truth.You like it or not Mbalula is saying what it is 🤞
Gwede did not go in public and criticize Fikile,he was asked a question by Samkelo and he answered.
Listening to Mbalula trying to explain how and when they will respond to the Zuma issue, makes me conclude that Zuma has surely outsmarted the ANC😂
Problem for Anc leadership concerning Zuma is that he's an influential person more than people like Magasule. So firing him is going to bring negative consequences even though there are comrades who support Ramaphosa who want action be taken against Zuma and yes they are justified in demanding that.
@@williamkgasiþ 7❤b
We are going to support ANC no matter what it's our home for ever thanks😂😂
He says he won't respond but he says everything we anticipated him to say
From Kapa to Cairo, we are MK💚

Mbalula he right ANC is going above 50%
If ANC is an organization that is leading its people honestly why would leaders like Mbazima Shilowa leave .
I've been trying to call him the day, again we are together here in Mombela😢
Mr Mbaks did the Anc protected phala phala in parliament?
Yes tell us now. We need to know the truth.
Does the EFF members knows that they are lying when they are arguing about VBS bank money transfers for their leaders?
Do the DA blind followers ignorance about the fact that they are just tools for the Ndlebezikhanyilanga mission to take Cape Town away from SA??
@@Sky-dv8mjWhat does that have to do with Phala Phala?? Is the a report that implicated EFF with VBS or it's just newspaper tabloids?
@@Sky-dv8mj😂😂smooth transition!
We as South Africans will vote for ANC there is a saying In english better the devil you know than the Engel you don't know
Only listening for about 7 minutes of this interview everyone could tell how anc is divided 😔 how the executive leaders are fighting one another! I really believe that it's time has passed now South Africans now should give other parties chance
Did they think they would arrest JZ, and he must smile?
Mr Mbalula, the infrasture leave much to be desired and is not conducive to attracting investors. Infrastructure is key to economic growth including industrialization to eliminate poverty and unemployment especially the youth.
Tough questions for SG, well done Sizwe. SG shoots from the hip
We salute Mbalula for him telling the truth we need a laeder like him
Breathing heavy there Mbalula.😂😂
Penalty time after extra time🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂he a clown for me...
In fact, uphefumula ngenxeba 😂😂😅
Yes Zuma is recruiting people from his cesspool the ANC, why not? Mbalula you are a liability to ANC and you are the reason why you will score less than 50%.
@@Honeybee897 we don't care about your opinions settler
People dont understand Mbalula....Fekile cant lie it's just he's in a wrong party & he tries to play by de rules....he tells de truth😂😂
Comaping Jacob Zuma to Mbazima Shilowa really??! The ANC has truly lost it
This guy i like he revealed all the ANC lies
Viva Fikile Viva he is doing a fantastic job!
Atleast Gwede was trying to cover him
But Gwede was out of line, he was not supposed to criticize him in public
Just as he was also not suppose to expose the ANC leadership, he needed to protect it. I have always said this, the position is so big for this novice. He likes the airtime this guy, especially when the members are always laughing when he's addressing them
@@vusimahlangu1456 Mbalula is more of a celebrity than a politician, but such things I believe should be discussed behind closed doors, they just further expose the division within the organization as well as the lack of confidence some senior ANC members have in Mbalula
Mbalula's new name now is Mr Clarification🤣🤣😂
😂
This was toughest interview for SG he kept on breathing hard especially when the job and economy question arise
Manta she was out of order to speak ill of our SG. He needs to be dealing with
I really like Mbalula, what you see is what you get
😂🤞
Fellow South Africans. It is the future of the country at stake; not of the ANC. Do you understand that?
People decided they dont like Mbaks. Truth or Not, they dont like him. True example of playing the man and not the ball. This man is speaking truths, but people are not catching fact but catching feelings. Im not ANC, but facts is Mbalula is talking facts this time around.
Why wasting your time interviewing isginqa thuvi? 😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂
Your are talking rubbish
@@luthandoyaso7040 wololo 😂😅😂😅
Fikile Mbalula is the best ANC SG. He speaks the truth.
Yes ! He is a real ACTION MAN . He promised a FINAL decision on e-tolls within 2 weeks . 120 weeks ago.
He also promised the end of load shedding by 2023, I guess he spoke the truth
But why ask that question, when Mr Mbalula already stated it and it's clear to everyone that's exactly what they did. In any organization people will always protect their own and their dignity at all cost.
Thank you Dr Sizwe. Always looking forward to watching your videos and see you interacting with your interviewees. Quite a lot was learned from this particular interview. The body language of Mr Mbalula spoke a lot 😂! The truth will always set one free.
Sizwe, I salute you brother. Excellent interviews always
Talk to us about Phalaphala as well
Watched only 7 minutes of this. Thank you, not going to waste my time with this guy.
Mbalula is an example of whst anc is
Mbalula and Mr Bean same same very fun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mbalula and Ramaphosa are a greatest mistakes ANC projects ever had and ANC will regret that.
Why do u leave Zuma out
@@user-ld1zh1kd2n Coz he was the best they ever had
Phambene wena,u mad
You are correct!
Is it because they defeated the tribal block from KZN?
ANC it's my party until i die
Yes MK must win a lot of votes from ANC. It is ANC that got itself in a mess.
Matashe tried to bail mbalula oit but ge faild to appreciate this n went on n on to blame him. Matafe was answering question. Mbalula is blaming his own comrade a very senior member. Mbalula thinks being an SG is theee thing. Mbalula n Ramadollar are about to fall. Imagibe spending over 5min ranting on utata Matashe when he is tge obe who messed up on Zuma...phansi ngo Mbalula phansi
But is telling the truth is just we like ubuxoki 😢
Then he is adding fuel on hot ashes, then telling truth by this time is saving nobody except that ANC is going further down the cliff. ANC is further assassinating itself.
I would not be able to hold myself from laughing here cause I am dying here and I don't even know how Sizwe is holding it back shem 🤣
Mbalula should have just endorsed what Gwede said and remain humble
Best is they all turning on each other.BRILLIANT!!!!
Like when you arrest him without trial
Politically, Mr. Mbalula is a beast, but he was NEVER ready!!!!
Look past the noise. Zuma’s new party has got the ANC sweating. Now all the ugly truths of Zuma’s tenure are going to be laid bare. Get ready for “ the greatest show in earth”.!
47:15 Absolutely brilliant! Here, the SG is slow-walked into admitting that the ANC NEEDS a formidable plan and does not in fact have one already to try to win elections with. The New Dawn🎉🎉🎉
