Julius Malema takes swipe at Helen Zille over ‘Gusheshe’ spinning

EFF leader Julius Malema has taken a swipe at DA mayoral candidate Helen Zille after she arrived at a Johannesburg election rally in a “Gusheshe”.

Zille made the entrance at the DA’s “Joburg Now or Never Rally” at the Nasrec Expo Centre on Saturday, ahead of South Africa’s local government elections.

Julius Malema criticised the celebration of activities such as spinning a Gusheshe, arguing that they do little to improve the lives of ordinary South Africans.

Other parties will spin you stories, we’ll spin into action.

The BMW 325i, affectionately known as the gusheshe in South African car culture, is synonymous with spinning, a motorsport subculture that has deep roots in South African black and coloured areas.
