UDM deputy president Nqabayomzi Kwankwa has condemned a disturbing AI-generated image showing him whipping Buffalo City Mayor Princess Faku, firmly denying any connection to the fabrication. He called out the normalization of violent imagery in politics, stressing that gender-based violence must never be weaponized—even as retaliation. Kwankwa apologized directly to Mayor Faku for the distress caused and urged all who shared the image to delete it. He demanded respectful engagement from supporters and emphasized that the UDM’s campaign will focus on real issues like infrastructure and leadership—not on exploiting or trivializing women’s safety.
