EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW : In conversation with Minister Malusi Gigaba

The political career of Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba remains uncertain.The Constitutional Court's denied Gigaba's request for leave to appeal an earlier ruling that he lied under oath. Courtesy #DStv403

[@bonnoketsbk]

Malusi is very intelligent period.

[@ayandanoxolo]

Gigabyte handled this interview like a boss 😎😎

[@Siyamthanda123]

There's a thin line between asking hard-hitting questions and being unprofessional.

[@tiomiiowami9035]

Plain rude

[@wilsonm9792]

Lmao theres still gonna be drama in the ANC

[@MrXolaX]

Imagine the truth in his mouth 😂

[@noskienols9735]

Lol

[@mhlengizikhali8382]

just a glance of his face......you just imagine it all the way down....like it or not

[@johannesmphaka7433]

Lol

[@valentinehadebe5157]

The interviewer is not very bright. Listening to this was excruciating. Such mediocre questioning and impulsiveness compromises integrity of the news channel.

[@ThandoNonkosi]

Ramaphosa please do the right thing.🙏🏽💯🥇🙄

[@anilsalick]

I've always admired Samkelo. Hard hitting, straight up. Go young man!

[@DinoRenald]

Malusi's got patience... This guy is annoying and just doesn't listen to anything Malusi's saying, he's arguing like a nagging girlfriend and not interviewing the minister... I'd have walked out of this interview within the first 30 minutes.

[@khanyisanimsikhakhane3316]

This guy mara, it a walk on the park for gigaba

[@MrXolaX]

This reporter is good but minister is as sly as a fox 🤣🤣🤣🤣 phunyuka bemphethe 😂😂😂😂😂

[@kuhlempati9808]

Samkelo had zero control over the interview, they should've asked someone more experienced and well prepared. Gigabyte did not let his foot off that guy's neck! 😂

[@bongatsepo4891]

prejudice and immaturity in Samkelo, I'm appalled.

[@mlungisimama800]

yho bra!!! I'm very appalled!

[@sarmophous]

Very true.

[@boff2014]

Hi Malusi,I'm apalled by how informed u are of de processes and procedures of de government,even when u were minister of finance,u always dare to familiarise yoself with de processes.We all make mistakes,we all are under construction,infact dese mistakes and woes are polishing u to hold de greatest post in office,if only u can learn from dem,humble yourself,confess,God will lift u up.U are destined for greatness,i can tell by de challenges u face! And u are good!

[@siphamandlasmkhize7980]

Minister MN Gigaba you are very powerful,I admire your drive,you are my inspiration,even though you often not treated fair.....

[@winniesimamane9791]

Malusi Gigaba is very smart Need a mature interviewer

[@MAKHUVELE]

Samkelo, you did a good job. Big ups to you.

[@Siyamthanda123]

Look, I'm not a Gigaba supporter bit Samkelo was being biased here. He wants the dishonourable minister to just confirm his rumours.

[@josephmokgehle1392]

Samkelo is on another level can't wait to see him blossom. He tried everything but minister didn't want to spill the beans

[@BronxWavy]

Yeah these people commenting want celebrity reporter and not respect fresh and stern reporting

[@benjimahlangu]

Are we watching the same thing? Malusi ran circles around Samkelo here

[@lungilemadlala149]

I am sure we are not viewing the same interview 😳😳😳

[@anointedterah6203]

this samkelo guy is taking chances

[@BronxWavy]

Samkelo, you did an excellent job! I don't know what interview these people are watching. Last night I saw a film called "The Informant". Its abiut Malusi, a young professional with so much potential but is destroyed by his own uncontrollable lies😂😂

[@Khutsomamabolo]

I'm forever disappointed by Samkelo 😂😂 he doesn't listen and he want people to answer how he wants. I'm glad Julius Malema delt with him accordingly "Mr Infatic". 😑

[@roystonroberts3463]

One thing of my African Brothers and Sisters is knowing how to handle the media

[@ndimphiwemtyenene4198]

Gigaba chewed this guy up

[@tumzagaereetse6188]

Good Work Samkelo

[@mkabayikajama5121]

This guy is a good spin doctor. Before year end he will convincingly deny that he's a minister and be believable.

[@BronxWavy]

😂😂

[@gustavozar5365]

Mkabayi kaSenzangakhona 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I swear,yezwa,I swear!!!

[@MrXolaX]

This guy reminds me of Prez JZ He is always denying

[@yolisandamase1958]

Even his voice has started sounding like his dad Zuma, the denying is worse.

[@Mangi850]

I do not think Samkelo was fair in this interview. He already judged the minister. I believe the journalist or interviewer should try by all means to be objective and not push questions to prove a certain preconceived allegations. I am not a fan of Minister Gigaba but he should be given a chance to state his views and for the public to judge for themselves. Samkelo was not listening to the minister & that is not a good way to conduct interview. I think the minister answered well [even though some might say he is lying- no one will know].

[@luckybengu9435]

Gigabyte knows his stuff💪

[@saneledlamini5009]

Samkelo not listening, has already taken a side, poorly fishing for a meaty response. Gigaba handled it quite well. Not saying he's a saint, not his biggest fan but poor interviewing for me.

[@sarmophous]

Gigaba is an intelligent somebody he is handing this matter more maturely than Samkelo...

[@artyringaz4572]

Samkelo and Thulasizwe u guys are the best .

[@seimela]

ahhh not thulasiywe

[@sedibengkagiso6986]

This Samkelo is young in this game, he needs to learn to listen. We need people who are political mature to understand when a question is answered. Why call him for interview when you already concluded on the matter at hand? I salute Melusi on showing maturity

[@zolanidyorom3393]

samkelo your questions are out of line. ubuza ikaka bra. you tying to put words on minister mouth now.

[@boitumelokola3040]

Samkelo is terrible at his job....Absolutely horrible. his inability to stay on topic and respond to given ques and LISTEN to his subject in order to direct the interview accordingly. the accusatory tone within the whole interview is undeniable and simply unfair, he made his mind up about the ministers guilt and that showed all the way through. this was not at all constructive, investigative or impartial journalism AT ALL. I'm deeply disappointed at the poor quality of this interview

[@hitekanimaimela7030]

This is a young journalist for Gigaba.

[@pritchardchitowa6988]

the interviewer asks like he z the boss.he should be trained more

[@joyousmduduzimiya891]

Well done Gigaba , I am telling you this guy will be the president one day.

[@bhekanishandu7396]

I respect the minister.

[@1000ralphw]

This guy was in the Gupta's pocket. Always was.

[@ditshegomosienyane2234]

Can someone tell me how NO could confuse his personal meeting note and minutes? This is very strange; NO went to some of the finest schools in SA and God knows where else, courtesy of the apartheid system and I cannot be convinced that he could send his personal meeting note to a minister and claim that that were minutes of a meeting between him and the minister. The interviewer is commingling all sorts of issues and confusing listeners, the little I have heard from NO and the minister tells me that NO has a lot to answer and I get the feeling that this interviewer did not ask him intelligent follow up questions. SA can do better ...

[@bhekimchunu9349]

Uthathwephi loSamkelo?

[@thulanigamede7652]

Gigaba's closing remarks should be "you are a small boy my boy" he rolled over this guy.

[@matomegift]

The journalist was not asking relevant questions , he didn't dig enough in malusi

[@VIEWMARY001]

Samkelo must interview him again :)

[@sandisothembanihina6607]

[@thapeloafrika6459]

[@timoteusnuugulu8591]

[@ongezilemdodana4658]

I like this interviewer

[@blackchild8365]

There’s nothing that this Poes can say to make me believe a word that he says

[@glorifygumede7275]

You need the Xoli Mngambi, Thulasizwe Simelane or Kathy Mohlahlane for this interview, i feel they throw Samkelo under the bus. Samkelo has not done one on one in most cases and you need to do so much before the interview and i feel he just relied on hearsay and what was reported in the media. He should have also interogated the approval processes, Oppenheimer says he approved and the minister points him the letter written in April but Samkelo is not able to respond ..........

[@zavier1304]

We gon be right, we gon be alright. 😂

[@jabulamula9571]

[@victorkamwi9189]

Malusi is smart at answering and dodging questions like the late Robert Mugabe

[@mashudushandukani1075]

[@proudmashilwane4301]

Wesley Myburgh He must be Zuma's Son from an unrecognised Mother Lie Lies and lie and still lying after all the Scandal

[@artyringaz4572]

Is the minister trying to maintain power ? Are his utterances and actions unifying and growing the party or are they destroying the party? Does he has to remain a public figure? What is his family and close acquaintances going through? Can we liken him to Cyril Tito Gwede, Oliver, Senzo ,Nkosazana? Where are we going and where are we coming from? Biting urself and blame a fly?

[@dataforcee]

problem and the core one lies around the mismanagement of the BUDGET allocated in SOE and not the under capitalization of the SOE

[@lionelgantsu3012]

I've never seen such a poor interview... Samkelo is asking questions that can be dodged any day by anyone... Poor homework on his side!

in most cases ENCA needs interviewers or journalist who are able to ask deep question in a good way. this mambo jambo journalists are always played by politicians, in south africa politicians are not even scared to give interviews. they know this journalists are weak, this individual should have done a lot of home work before coming to gigaba. Gigaba is clever and too clever for this journalists

[@youngatheart74]

[@khanyisanimsikhakhane3316]

Eish

[@thokohildamthombeni8544]

Good point@@youngatheart74 Just because Malusi is a good spin doctor does not make Samkelo a bad interviewer. I doubt if any journalist would have done a better job.

[@Crousus7]

😂🤣

[@Thesustainableleaders]

Gigaba should know that in politics perception not facts but media narrative to either build or destroy is what the public will believe

[@videoviewer502]

Eish this interviewer ...my personal opinion is that he poorly handled this interview. Give Gigaba a level playing field ... His story holds water. Why should we only hear one side and conclude. Even his explanation of the issue of the lies is spot on. All the points he explained are on point.I am not ANC but why is it konke konke ngu Gigaba ... surely something is fishy. This dude seems and has proven to be a stellar hard working oke....how long does it take you to geta passport at home affairs now....for some cases its now as fast as 3 days....how is this guy not working? ... No further comment

[@atlanticautolek6659]

this enca interviewer is jumping to his own conclusions, and cant seem to accept or understand very simple explanation's or answers put to him. this is a very poor interviewer he should really be trained on how to interview. I'm not a Gigaba fan but fair is fair and it really shows how propaganda is peddled by media.

[@blinkym21]

Ronald Steenkamp well put, this interviewer has watched too much Hard Talk and thought he would use the same approach, without sustainable facts… the Minister was not shaken and did not even miss a beat!

[@mhlengizikhali8382]

truth be told, i'm with you on that, Gigaba is not creating stories here, he's telling it like it is......................his confidence and explanations...go me really IMAGINING him telling the TRUTH

[@thokohildamthombeni8544]

Disagree. This interviewer was very good. It so happens that Malusi is very good at handling difficult questions.

[@arikimtonyole6031]

Samkelo was very good in this interview,askin question again & again tryna ge' the truth outa him in diff ways,"like how a lawyer does(as the same question repeatedly in diff ways to see if you stick to your initial story)." Samkelo was very good!!

[@glorifygumede7275]

I was a bit disappointed by Samkelo's line of questioning to the Minister, at times he sounded like he had forgotten the facts at hand and made unnecessary statements. I think he is on with short question during the press briefings but for a one on one interview i say no. Malusi for me handled the questions well and at times assisted Samkelo

[@pieterhaarhoff6413]

He is a bleddy liar and not a SOUTH AFRICAN!

[@sankaragarvey5862]

Look at the posture of that journalist

[@ditshegomosienyane2234]

I am sorry SA but this is an interrogation and not an interview as it is purported. I really have a fear and concern that the fixation on the Gupta syndrome is denying many of us the art of reason and fairness.

[@esloneslon360]

Where's Justice Malala Samkelo is too lighter for Malusi.... Hence why did Mr. Gigaba choose to present his full story on the media platform? He perhaps knew that Samkelo won't squeeze him to the core to tell truth... I see this as a strategy to try and influence or convince the appointing authority of his innocence. If he denies to have lied than he is simply saying both the high court and the Public protector rulings are all incorrect, neither was the concourt right in denying him an opportunity to appeal the matter.

This is too much to watch, I think the interviewer needs somemore training. This was too big a task for him.
