Twitter slams Mbuyiseni Ndlozi for 'hijacking' Enock Mpianzi's funeral with 'borderless Africa' speech
Twitter has taken shots at EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, accusing him of “cheap electioneering” at 13-year-old Enock Mpianzi's funeral on Saturday.
Mpianzi drowned during a Parktown Boys' High School camp in the North West last month.
A viral video of Ndlozi advancing the EFF's “borderless Africa” agenda has seen many accuse him of insensitivity and opportunism.
In the video, Ndlozi criticises SA's immigration laws and implies there are “double standards” by alleging that white people don't get asked to produce documentation when coming into the country.
Ndlozi also made reference to former president Nelson Mandela, asking if he was asked for documents when he received military training on the continent.
TimesLIVE reported Enock's parents looked on during Ndlozi's speech, barely making eye contact.
I thought morality was a factor of politics. But after seeing Dr. Mbuyuseni Ndlozi turn a 13 year olds funeral into a political rally for radically border protocol changes I’ve been very upset. From Julius taking pictures with the grieving family.

Ndlozi using the tragedy of a young boy to promote his political and social philosophies is beyond disgusting. #EnockMpianzi

If I die and my death becomes highly publicized please don’t let any politician hijack my last moments like Ndlozi did. It’s distasteful and disrespectful.

Ndlozi and the EFF have became tone deaf, even to their own supporters. They seem so far removed from the realities lived by South Africans daily.

The EFF need to revisit its policy on foreign nationals.
No one goes to sleep with their gates and doors open.
No country, rich or poor should open its borders
I trust EFF members internally will raise this issue.
South Africans must come first #ndlozi

Sheer opportunism. Even we South Africans are documented, why should foreigners roam around untraceable. Ndlozi is reaching twitter.com/MJ_Ncube/statu…
