Thobela Moshabi. I have seen your request to share a cup of tea. As you know, Nkandla village is home for me and that is where my time is spent these days. Tea I have plenty of, you are more than welcome to come over for a cup. https://t.co/7Okdw94WAH

Speaking to the SABC outside the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) headquarters in Centurion - after the collection of the BLF registration certificate - Mngxitama reminded Zuma that he is meeting with a well-known "back-stabber".
"All we are saying do not move your eyes away from the tea because you are dealing with a man that has stabbed you too many times in the back.
"You are sitting there with a seasoned sell-out, seasoned betrayer who is prepared to go to Nkandla - a place he said was a place of corruption - to go and sniff around and see how prepared you are for this battle.
"We are simply saying to president Zuma watch your back and good luck," Mngxitama, who is a former EFF member, warned.
The meeting was underway at Zuma's homestead on Friday afternoon.
