An African National Congress (ANC) member has sparked outrage after a video emerged on social media showing them flaunting a large sum of cash, raising serious questions about the origin of the money. The video, which quickly went viral, shows the unnamed individual boasting while holding bundles of cash, further stoking public concerns about corruption and accountability within political circles.
Critics have called for an investigation into the source of the funds, warning that such a display could suggest unethical behavior or even the misuse of public resources. The incident has reignited debates over corruption in the ANC at a time when the party is already under intense scrutiny following a string of high-profile scandals.

“This type of behavior damages public trust and raises suspicions about possible misuse of state funds,” said political analyst Thabo Msimanga. “Given the ANC’s recent history, this incident could significantly harm the party’s already fragile reputation.”
While some ANC supporters dismissed the video as a harmless display, others have warned of the broader implications for political accountability. Critics argue that such actions undermine efforts to restore public confidence in elected officials.
So far, the ANC has not issued an official statement regarding the incident. However, sources within the party suggest that an internal investigation may be launched to determine the circumstances surrounding the video and how the money was obtained.
The public has reacted with a mixture of outrage and frustration, demanding answers from the party. The incident has once again highlighted the heightened scrutiny facing South African political figures and the ongoing challenges of maintaining transparency and accountability.
As the story develops, many await further clarification from the ANC, with growing calls for stronger measures to prevent such incidents and rebuild trust with the electorate.
