The former VUMA FM radio personality took to her official X (Twitter) account, showing the negative comments from two women she identified as Zimbabwean nationals who had targeted her in the comment section of her Facebook post.
She captioned her post on X with:
"Early morning provocation from the poor and innocent migrants."

The first commenter, identified as Nestar L KM, dismissed any expectation that undocumented foreigners would comply with Jacinta and her anti-immigration group's calls to leave South Africa and return to their home country.
She wrote:
"Remember, on behalf of all foreigners, we're not going anywhere; we will prosper together here in South Africa."
However, Ngobese-Zuma, preparing for her March and March protest, chose not to engage at length with the woman, responding simply with the word "OK".
The second commenter, Yeukai Moyo, went further and made the heated social media exchange deeply personal.
Rather than debating the merits of Jacinta's marches, the netizen questioned their effectiveness and made some remarks about Ngobese-Zuma's personal life, including her marriage.
She wrote:
"Jacinta Zinhle MaNgobese Zuma, and you think you can chase away millions of foreigners by going into the streets? My dear, better spend time with your husband and protect your marriage."
"If you leave that man and go to the streets, i.e., if you have one, you will find him gone with a foreigner lol. I wonder which degree you studied that failed to knock sense into your brain."
The two women's remarks surfaced at a particularly charged moment, as Jacinta and her March and March Movement were preparing to lead coordinated protests against illegal immigration in multiple provinces in South Africa on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

"The sad part is, even if they stay, they will not be as comfortable as they were before. It’s silly how people hate their own homes this much. It’s sad man. Leave them."
Eva_mothib78298 said:
"Don't mind them. These people are on a mission. They're not even worth it. Why must you care about cowards who can't confront their bad government?"

"But those are facts. Did you honestly think marching in the streets was going to chase away people who have established their lives here who have business, families here, not happening."
