Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla has been spotted attending the Economic Freedom Fighters’ (EFF) Tshela Thupa Rally at the Orlando Amstel Arena in Soweto on Saturday.
Zuma-Sambudla was seen wearing a T-shirt bearing the words “Freedom Fighters”, prompting speculation about whether she could be joining the red berets.
Her appearance at the rally comes months after she was expelled from her father Jacob Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party in June 2026, alongside former party spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela.
The EFF held the rally as the final major event of its 2026 local government election campaign ahead of the elections scheduled for 4 November.
As of now, there has been no official confirmation that Zuma-Sambudla has joined the EFF.
