In April 2022, he ran unsuccessfully for election as the Regional Chairperson of the ANC's large Mzala Nxumalo branch in Zululand; he ran on a slate which was viewed as inhospitable to the re-election bid of ANC President Cyril Ramaphosa, and he was defeated by the incumbent, Sbu Mhlongo, a Ramaphosa loyalist.[3][4][5]
