Now it’s her mistress’s voice

This mampara created shock waves at an ANC rally in the Eastern Cape when she blocked SABC cameras from filming people protesting against poor service delivery.

Barking orders to journalist­s, Ndabeni-Abrahams said the SABC team should not be giving coverage to “people that are out of order”.

She sounded like Hlaudi Motsoeneng, who once said covering service delivery protests on TV encouraged citizens to protest.

When this mampara was called out, she apologised and reiterated her commitment to media freedom.

This mampara is well known for her feistiness, but this time it was misdirecte­d.
