Kuli Roberts is now a politician as she serves as the new councillor candidate for Ward 65 in Tshwane. The party leader is former president Jacob Zuma’s spokesperson, Mzwanele Manyi. He broke the news on social media which received a lukewarm reception.

“The one and only @kuliroberts has joined the winning team. Servant Kuli has signed up to serve the people of South Africa. Servant Kuli is ATM councillor candidate for Ward 65 in Tshwane. We wish her well,” he announced.

Ignoring the hate, Kuli Roberts made it known that she is not new in this politics business, in fact she has been in it for decades. “Well I've been at it for decades. We need to do better and there are many of us. Instead of burning the Schools, let’s extend them.

“I'm all about living in a safe area where they know how to install water meters and don't estimate electricity usage or claim to have undercharged,” tweeted Kuli.

Kuli was very much aware of the hate she is receiving and she told her haters to continue talking about her as she finds it very funny.

One person who is not impressed by Kuli's appointment as candidate councillor is Ntsiki Mazwai. She feels it is not ideal for gossip mongers to become leaders and she still feels some type of way about Kuli. She remembers when she was younger, Kuli who writes for a popular publication, used to apparently gossip about her every week and was apparently made fun of. So regarding her appointment, Ntsiki says, “Miss me on gossip mongers turning leaders.”

When a tweep asked for them to reconcile with Kuli apologising, Ntsiki said she might have been younger but she was definitely older than her. "She was way older than me and being a bully."

One thing she is definitely passionate about is fighting for albinism awareness and LGBTQI rights. She was a guest on MacG last week and spoke about her passion for this. She does not want to create a hashtag because she feels it is part of her daily life not something she wants to trend. "I don't put a hashtag, it's a way of life."

"The reason I say that is so that the black man who is a homophobe can know that there women who like other women. Because as black people, we like to use tradition and culture and all sorts of excuses for weirdness.

"We need to be exposed to things and you may not agree but you need to know that these things exist. And my reason for supporting people with albinism is because I want Africans to stop killing them. And I want African languages to change what they call people with albinism. Because every single name in every single African language for person with albinism is derogatory."
