Zuma along with KZN premier Willies Mchunu have been doing door-to-door visits in areas close to Vryheid in northern KZN. 


While others pushed and shoved to catch a glimpse of Zuma, others stood aside saying there are far too many service problems in the area to celebrate the visit. 


One resident says it's local white farmers who should be running for the elections as they have been providing water to communities through man-made dams. 


Other locals could be heard saying they won't be voting for the ANC as some communities still don't have the running water and electricity they were promised many years ago. 


Earlier, today Zuma was well received in Mondlo with community members praising ANC's delivery track record in recent years.
