My speech today: Buffalo City has 50 wards and not a single one under UDM control yet. That is not a weakness, it is an opportunity. No gatekeeping, no excuses. Build branches, organise communities, and earn trust ward by ward. The work starts now! #VoteUDM2026 #LocalGovermentThatWorks

The installation of Archbishop Sithembele Sipuka is underway in Cape Town, and I send my heartfelt congratulations to you and the church at large! You step in into an Office that has historically been occupied by leaders who were not afraid to speak truth to power, who defended the vulnerable, and who ensured that the Church remained a moral compass for society.

South Africans expect implementation, not promises. #SONA2026 #GNU #UDM
