EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu on Sunday praised the opposition party's supporters after demonstrations in the small town of Senekal in the Free State.

It said it will continue to confront"white supremacist behaviour", regardless of criticism.

“The honeymoon for racists is over, and we thank the leadership and membership of the EFF for sending a strong message to all those who seek to take this country back to a dark past.” of the Institute for Security Studies on Sunday praised police, the EFF and farmers for ensuring non-violence on Friday.

However, he said the police should have tried to keep the protesting groups apart to prevent confrontation. “They clearly failed to do that throughout because there was a confrontation and stones were thrown. Fortunately, on both sides, there were people who kept their members back [because] it could have turned ugly,“The two groups did exercise a lot of restraint. I saw members of the EFF calling and pushing their members back and forming a chain between themselves and the farmers. Among the farmers it was the same, except for one or two who wanted to retaliate when stones were thrown.

Floyd not happy with just stealing VBS money, it seems.

Why do they want to take over and not start their own banks and buy own farms and build own factories? EFF has money to do this they must stop buying Gucci and Porches and invest in the country - talk is cheap and blaming others is easy - I challenge the EFF to do these things

As if the VBS heist was not enough 🙆🏽‍♂️ These bankrobbers must be arrested forthwith as Shivambu's statement is clear evidence of another planned bankrobbery 🤷🏽‍♂️

Floyd.. your red team need to learn to play the ball and not the man!⚽️ And please can you “pay back the pensioners money” thank you

All I heard was contradictory statements. A lot of supporters didnt even know why they were there.

Soon he be hugging on juju from a jail cell

Blah blah, cheap politics for the uneducated... blah blah blah... smokescreen... blah blah... VBS payday!!!

'Nationalising a bank'. I assume the dream is to walk in there and consider all the clients' money as yours, to share among the upper echelons of your party. It's called theft or robbery, depending of whether you also introduce violence.

VBS LOOTER AT WORK

Confronting dustbins and burning ANC t shirts is not much of a “success” Floyd.

If they call their singing of those songs a “success” then the word has lost all meaning...

Hahaha, so he awarded himself an A. Wow, how very unbiased. Idiot.
