“Don’t Vote For The ANC On November 4 Elections” March And March Leader Jacinta Tells Scooter Riders

March and March Movement leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma has reportedly urged scooter riders not to vote for the African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa’s upcoming local government elections scheduled for November 4, 2026.

The reported remarks come amid growing political debate over immigration enforcement, service delivery and the direction of local government, with the March and March Movement continuing to draw attention through its demonstrations and public statements.

Ngobese-Zuma has emerged as a prominent voice in protests calling for stricter enforcement of South Africa’s immigration laws. The movement has also challenged the government over its handling of undocumented immigration and policies affecting asylum seekers.

Her reported appeal to scooter riders not to support the ANC adds another political dimension to the movement’s activities ahead of the elections. Scooter riders and e-hailing drivers have participated in demonstrations associated with March and March in Durban, bringing their concerns about immigration and economic opportunities into the broader public debate.

In recent weeks, Ngobese-Zuma has addressed supporters about the importance of participating in the November 4 elections. Reports published after her October 21 address indicated that she encouraged supporters to vote for political parties whose positions align with the movement’s objectives.

However, the specific statement urging scooter riders not to vote for the ANC requires confirmation from the original video, recording or a direct report of her remarks.

The ANC has faced criticism from various groups over immigration enforcement, unemployment and service delivery. These issues have become part of the wider political debate as parties and civic organisations seek to persuade voters to support their respective positions.

For March and March, immigration remains a central issue. The movement has argued that government policies should prioritise the needs of South African citizens, including those who struggle to obtain identity documents or access economic opportunities.

The upcoming local government elections will give eligible voters an opportunity to decide which parties and candidates they want to represent them in their municipalities. The performance of local administrations, access to basic services, employment opportunities and accountability are among the issues that voters may consider when making their decisions.

Ngobese-Zuma’s reported message to scooter riders highlights how the movement’s campaign is intersecting with electoral politics, even though March and March has previously maintained that it does not intend to become a political party.

As the election approaches, further statements from the movement and responses from political parties may provide additional clarity about its position towards the ANC and other contestants.

The central question is whether Ngobese-Zuma’s reported appeal will be accompanied by a broader endorsement of alternative political parties or remain a specific call for scooter riders to reject the ANC at the ballot box.
