Former Pirates Star Thulasizwe Mbuyane Loses Ward Election but Vows to Continue Political Journey

Former Orlando Pirates footballer Thulasizwe ‘Juju’ Mbuyane has suffered an electoral setback after failing to secure a ward councillor position in the recent Local Government Elections in Tshwane. However, he has indicated that his involvement in politics and community service will continue.

Mbuyane contested Ward 67 under the Liberation Forum South Africa banner but was unsuccessful in his bid to win the seat.

Despite the disappointing outcome, the former Buccaneers attacker described his first experience of contesting an election as rewarding and memorable. He said the campaign allowed him to connect with residents and experience the excitement of seeking public support.

Speaking to the media after the elections, Mbuyane expressed appreciation for the encouragement he received from community members throughout the campaign.

He also made it clear that losing the election would not discourage him from pursuing his political ambitions or contributing to local development.

According to Mbuyane, his commitment to serving residents existed before the election campaign and would remain unchanged.

He maintained that his political journey was far from over, suggesting that he intends to remain actively involved in community affairs despite failing to secure the ward seat.
