Njengamanje ubhala incwadi yakhe yokuqala enesihloko esithi “My Story, Your Inspiration” ezophuma ngoMasingana.
Ebuzwa ukuthi kungani ethathe isinqumo sokujoyina i-ATM eneminyaka emithathu yasungulwa, uthe kwammangaza ukuziphatha kweqembu.
“I-ATM ihluke ngayo yonke indlela kwamanye amaqembu epolitiki. Iholwa ngabantu abanesimilo,” usho kanje.
I-ATM yasungulwa nguVuyo Zungula, owayesondelene nowayenguMengameli wezwe uMnumzane uJacob Zuma eminyakeni emithathu edlule.
“Noma ngabe ngiphuma okhethweni ngiphumelele noma cha, umzabalazo wokuguqula izimpilo zabantu uzoqhubeka,” kusho uTshiamo.
