Ringo Madlingozi returns to his first love, music

From music to politics and back to music, Ringo Madlingozi will be returning to his first love of making music after entering the political arena for a few years. Acclaimed SA musician Ringo Madlingozi took to social media platform X this past week to announce his departure from being a member of parliament. "I’m no longer active in politics. I will always love my brothers and sisters. My purpose to heal through my music will remain. I will die a fighter," Madlingozi posted. Madlingozi served as an EFF MP from 2019.
So what brought on his musical return?

[@GobusamangIsaacmahumapelo]

We viewers are not stupid, then this lady says “did I say anc?” Whoever wrote that intro of Ringo made sure He/She calls Ringo an anc even though the know that RINGO IS A EFF MEMBER

[@Papito_ZA]

Deep down he is ANC - sadly we are all ANC 😢

[@senzomthembu261]

Is it me or I'm over thinking things,what is in his mind when he says ppl say things they do not believe,we should remember dt we're on our own.

[@chrislebese8513]

It never made any sense from the beginning.

[@tankisothafeni4428]

He was never a politician from first hand. To become an outstanding Politician it requires one to be mentally strong, have well refined logic, have broad knowledge, have broad comprehension, having unending appetite for studying, and do a lot of research, etc.

[@m.x.refrigxolani8365]

No bro, to be apolitician needs to be mentally stupid, have great lies and know how to dupe the masses, and act like a "saint". That's all

[@Papito_ZA]

Admin u hloka ho lelekoa - ke hobane'ng ha u sa ka ua fetola karolo eo? Hobaneng o etsa Naledi ngwanaka tjee? U hlabisa mosali oa ka oa ka moso lihlong 😢

[@MzamoAdoons372]

Joining the EFF was rather a reckless move😂😂😂

[@sifisodube4686]

This lady why she’s saying ANC he was in EFF

[@vuyisasigonyela]

He still is

[@sifisodube4686]

Naledi you too quick at times why saying ANC

[@reubenmaake1081]

He looks hurt

[@GobusamangIsaacmahumapelo]

This lady’s “mistake “ of calling Ringo anc mp was written deliberately.
