Helen Zille tries to get DJ Fresh to join the DA

With the local government elections looming‚ Helen Zille took to Twitter to try and poach DJ Fresh to join the Democratic Alliance camp and‚ by the looks of it‚ the radio personality isn’t keen at all.

The Western Cape premier asked DJ Fresh – real name Thato Sikwane – to kindly change his name on Twitter from “Big Dawg” to “Big DA-wg” up until the elections.

Hi there, just till the election, won't you change your name to Big DA-wg? Thank you.

If DJ Fresh’s response is anything to go by‚ we suggest Helen shouldn’t hold her breath.

Meanwhile‚ Twitter users had a good laugh at the brave request.

Helen, I say bravo... you know opportunity and have a sense of humor — The Real Vee (@VonaniVee)
