And Khutso Rapudi told him to stick to Church songs, claiming that he sounds stupid trying to analyze politics. “You are not smart enough for this.”
“CR (Cyril Ramaphosa) did well, there is no question. My interrogation was leaned towards the proximity of JZ to the king. Say I was CR and I thought yazi I think JZ (Jacob Zuma) knew this man way more than me… can I not ask him to do it?

“This is simply about JZ being much closer to the Zulu Royal Family, not just him being Zulu & Cyril being Venda. So your comparison to Thabo Mbeki with Qunu people is misplaced. Cyril rightfully delivered the eulogy as the President, but Khaya’s question is not absurd,” said Khwezi.
“Your tweet smells tribalism. Why would he have done that? You shouldn’t have asked this question in the first place. CR is the president, Zuma is the former president,” responded Gerald Mohlabe. “Not at all… asking if it would have been wrong…” said Khaya Mthethwa.
