Clinging to power is an element of greed/selfishness & disregard of democracy.

Kuhle loko esikubonayo kakade inkunzi isematholeni

It's step in the right direction, we need young blood in parliament, congrats to him

Buthelezi yena wanna die in parly

is this age cheating or what just look at that pic what 23😭😭😭

Which organisation is this because I am sure it is not ANC

In Europe, South America and Asia a 12-year-old could be the king and ruling vast empire.

Ayi suka! Instead of introducing him properly, you are busy comparing ages. Mcm

Billionaire By 30 In Major Currencie$ !

Just how broke is Mangosuthu to want to continue doing this?

Well I thought the youngest is teboho khakhau which is 21 years old from free state..

Congratulations young man. Now go argue that you are more qualified than John so you should be a chief whip. 😂

Is he fully qualified for this position? What qualifications does he have?

If that's he's real age

😊Please leave Buthelezi out of this, most offices do have an old furniture. All the best to the young man

They are old you complain, they are young you don’t believe them,they are white you complain,they are black you don’t congratulate them Africans what do you want let congratulate the young man for his achievements that all

LadyCharlotte01 Well done Our_DA

If he's 23 then I'm 16

And it cannot be ANC MP

The kind of news we like to read!
