Accusations of Hypocrisy
This gesture has sparked strong reactions, with some social media users accusing Kunene of hypocrisy. @Miz_Ruraltarain, a Twitter user, pointed out the contradiction between Kunene’s actions and the Patriotic Alliance’s supposed mission to prioritise the employment of South Africans in entry-level jobs.
“And the waiter is Washington from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼, walks away with R11k from Deputy President of Patriotic Alliance that supposedly must fight for employment of South Africans in “Entry-level jobs” which are non scarce skills! What is Sergio contributing to our country’s economic value? What permit does his friend have, on surely his long lifetime friend Kenny Kunene can indulge patriots?,” @Miz_Ruraltarain expressed.

@Uyskaas:
These guys are fakes. He must’ve picked up from the moment Washington said weocme Sir that he’s a kwerekwere. But that’s the noise they make on public platforms and behave different in their closed spaces.
@Seni_WaMboni:
He’ll never leave this lifestyle behind, thought he had matured but no. Very disappointing
@LindaMvund26543:
A true politician doesn’t go around and show off? This is a sign of disrespect to the masses
