HIS FAVOURITE PRESIDENT
While making his speech, Mokoena described Malema as his "favourite President in South Africa." Defender, Grant Kekana supported Mokoena's statement saying, jokingly that he might dump his team due to this. "Teboho Mokoena just became my favourite player. I might dump Kaizer Chiefs for Sundowns because of him. His favourite President Julius Malema is also my favourite politician in the world."
MISSING OUT DUE TO POLITICS
Now a fake statement has gone viral on social media, claiming that Al Ahly has cancelled scheduled trials for Teboho because he supports Julius Malema. Teboho currently has a contract with Sundowns until June 2026. The source of the statement is unknown and uses an outdated logo. Teboho was unreachable for comment.
