Mbalula Dismisses Zuma’s Rigging Claims as Baseless Ahead of 2024 Elections

ANC Secretary General Fikile Mbalula has dismissed former President Jacob Zuma’s allegations of election rigging, calling them unsubstantiated and without merit. In a pointed response shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Mbalula criticized Zuma’s assertions, highlighting a lack of evidence and public support to back his claims.

“This fallacious claim Zuma is making that elections were rigged and he got more support — we should have seen that in big numbers today at Moses Mabhida,” Mbalula wrote, referencing the ANC’s recent event at the stadium, which fell short of anticipated attendance figures.

This fallacious claim ZUMA is making that elections were rigged and he got more support, We should have seen that in big numbers today at Moses Mabhida.

— ANC SECRETARY GENERAL | Fikile Mbalula (@MbalulaFikile) December 15, 2024

Zuma has alleged external interference in the electoral process, but Mbalula’s remarks reflect the ANC leadership’s confidence in the integrity of both the elections and the party’s internal systems. His rebuttal also underscores the ANC’s effort to present a unified front as it heads into the critical 2024 general elections.

The Moses Mabhida Stadium event was intended as a display of party strength and unity. However, the turnout—or lack thereof—has fueled criticism and further underscored the simmering tensions between Zuma’s faction and the current ANC leadership under President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Zuma’s faction has been vocal about their dissatisfaction with the ANC’s current direction, creating a rift that threatens to overshadow the party’s election preparations. Mbalula’s comments, however, appear aimed at shutting down divisive rhetoric and refocusing attention on the ANC’s broader strategy to consolidate support ahead of the highly contested polls.

By publicly rejecting Zuma’s claims, Mbalula signals the ANC’s intent to distance itself from internal discord and maintain its dominance in South African politics. Yet, the exchange highlights the challenges the party faces in balancing unity and addressing factional grievances as it approaches a pivotal election year.
