BREAKING | A member of parliament for the EFF has accused party leader and his deputy Julius Malema and Floyd Shivambu of using party money to fund their lifestyles

Thembinkosi Rawula, an MP who also sits on the public enterprise committee, took to Facebook on Friday to make the accusations.

According to Rawula, Malema and Shivambu have allegedly taken more than R35m belonging to the party for personal use. This money, according to Rawula, includes R25m the EFF gets from the National Assembly, R10m membership funds, R1.7m from councillors’ contributions, as well more than R400,000 contribution by the MPs.

“All these monies are centralised in the EFF under the control, abuse and dictatorship of Julius Malema and Floyd Shivambu. They have made it clear that this is their organisation and all of you have come to join us, not the other way round. In the EFF, there is a treasurer-general called Leigh Ann Marthys, unfortunately she only administers petty cash of the EFF,” said Rawula.

EFF media liaison officer Sixolise Gcilishe said they had been made aware of the allegations but was not at liberty to comment. “It has come to our attention and I'm trying to get hold of our leadership. I will let the media if there is something [we want to say],” said Gcilishe.“And when occasionally we find courage to ask about it, we are chastised as spies, treated with disdain and threatened to be removed from parliament.

Malema... Most of people don't know this guy😂😂... Good decision for resigning cos no future there and welcome back home to ANC

I get suprised when people get suprised by this

DecolonisedB0er Bwahahaha Commen Criminals!

Tsamaya oye mapodiseng papa,,o itse molao

I thought they knew that they are being lead by a Very Greedy Corrupt So Called Commander In chief Julius Malema and his deputy Shivambu, Now they sound pretty surprised...

We are tired of lies 🤥

Noooo, they can’t be serious. Juliaaas is a Son of the Soil, all of his election posters say so. He’d never, ever use other people’s money for self gain, or designer clothes

CIC Julius_S_Malema warned us about this guys.He said we must expect the aggressive fight back from the Stratcom side towards the elections.Well I see he wasn't lying but we still vote EFF come May 08 Asijiki 💪💪💪

Jay_du_Plessis Im soooooooo surprised😒 imagine that....who would have thought😒

OBVIOUS

Tell us something we don’t know!

Hebanna this is breaking news la re nyela mos now

Actually he didn't accuse them, he confirmed a truth that has been doing the rounds for quite some time!

Obvious 🤷🏾‍♂️😂😂

It's their party after all,they can wear their Gucci the way they want. And when they get into power they will fly private jets to toilet

Who is this terrible white media who is reporting this rubbish! Bloody agents! We want land ! We want job! We want money! We will throw chairs 😂😂😂😂😂

Let the games begin 😂😂😂

Konje election are around the coner newspapers will write shit

Really you arn't corrupt?

That Party member of parliament must sit down and relax,because the money that he talks about is not in the hands of Julius and Floyd,but the TREASURY SECTION of the Party.And do not have individual right to ACCESS the capital of the party,unless agreed and signed by the treasury

But this make no sense, look at our campaign where does he think that money comes from

Not tge first, not the last. No doubt hundreds will say ' I dont care' and 'we are led'....you will be led straight into greater poverty.

Whaterver you chowed, FloydShivambu and Julius_S_Malema please make sure that next financial year, you chow X3. If he has a problem, he must jump in the next hell

I wouldn't expect any less from those two hypocrites.

I can't say I am surprised 💲💰💲

Political games and pay offs begins now,my question is How much he was paid? I'm not interested at this point...

Oksalayo

LucidualLady

Well there is a suprise

Should this be a surprise these two gangsters are only in this for the luxury life style son of the soil taught by the king ZUMA welcome to the GUCCI revolution I feel so sorry for the ground troops hoodwinked by gangsters

So they must starve them selves and behave like they are jobless hai . Atleast they are using party money compare to those who are using tax payers money

And how is that illegal or affect us. They discovered and now own the party. So what, singenaphi thina. If that EFF MP is unhappy s/he can leave and start their own. And i bet they'll do the same ish..

No maan you can't be spreading fake/half news here. Who is the EFF MP? Now it's hard to believe your news because they not full detailed. Name the EFF MP then we believe you. At the moment, uyaxoka..

Mahodu

Electioneering, once again blacks always prove to sell out their organisation's to stratcom

hope Sowetan will also be able to tell the nation that the Rawula don't have proof to substantiate his claims

Just think how they will loot once in Government. At least ANC rich now so maybe can get on with running country.

How is this *BREAKING NEWS* though..🧐🤷🏽‍♀️

Can this be really true that somebody has been dipping their fingers in the cookie jar.

Tell us something more intresting!!

During this campaigning period especially coming close to the elections, we expect all sorts of allegations and scandals from all directions... no party takes over government without going through the fire 🔥as for Me & my House we will VoteEFF!!!

But of course. That's how African socialism works.

Forward we go... coz oksalayo...

I AM STILL VOTING FOR EFF OK

Listen to the EFF people Listen to then bunch of hypocrites if i waa ANC or any party they would believe

Every political party should be allowed to run their own Fast Food franchise chain so they can have transparent revenue and can eat their own. My only concern with this is that the EFF would nationalize KFC.

Whos that member... asking for a friend I mean if it's legit then he or she will not be afraid to come out and say it

I am not surprised that's the Julius Malema I know.

I remember exactly how we voted Zuma when all signs were there

Isn’t this the same National Assembly money EFFSouthAfrica revealed when they explained PaulivW’s lies about properties in the names of Malema and Shivambu that were actually EFF properties they bought using the same National Assembly money as security? Journalists and Math 🙄

With so many educated commissars there, including doctors and all, how is that even possible?🙆🏿‍♂️

Makahambe Asijiki

Lekkerrrrrr

Bomboklaaat!!!! When one of your own rat you out!!!!! 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭

We have been warned about this kind of bile journalism...

Seriaaaasaas?

No surprise here!!!

Hmmm 🤔

When Mgitama was not elected in mangaung,he made the same allegations.we are not shaken.

It was bound to happen, behind that facade something big is brewing, next thing one will get insults that will make even the devil cry

Msezane_Sifiso Those are the symptoms of the person who has been poisoned by the DA and ANC.

Two skelms these guys. EFFSouthAfrica

Some of us where in the 1st PPA, that MP maybe was not at the conference, We took resolution that we do not discuss funds in EFF, WhereWereYou full stop

How can a worker blame the employer for using company money to fund his/her lifestyle? EFF belongs to Malema & Shivambu, period! The poor guy must just enjoy the benefit of being an MP.

My teacher once said that a Leopard can't change its spot

I am not surprised,the duo especially Floyd loves nice &expensive things.Niggar be donning Guccis and LVs week in and week out & he's always sorrounded by bouncers at the night clubs,not 2 mention expensive drinks he buys for slay queens,now it makes sense where money comes from

Ooohhh

So what? he is just jealous.. leave Big Boss Malema and supervisor Shivambu alone!!! Go forth and fix SA.. EFFRedFriday

Eff is centralized around these two so its either you take it or you leave, looters are everywhere mchana.

Stratcom at it again

Akuzweli yazi! OkusalayosovotelaEFF EFFSouthAfrica

That must be so obvious!!

That's what politicians are for, the only trustworthy politicians are in the DA. Why? Because all the critics are facing them (no time to be corrupt).

No suprise that the elephants are coming home to roost

no comment on that. media nowa days just want to sell news without the proper research and investigation. for now NO COMMENT

Chicken are coming home to roost but like the WANC, these arsehiles will get away with it

Leopard never changes it's spots, Julius and ANC same WhatsApp group.

But that's how it was

They will deny it and the whistle-blower will be dismissed. It's the black way

Oksalajou

Duh of course they are stealing party funds. Where do you think they get their money from? Working? 😂😂😂😂

Drrrrrrrr!

It was obvious vele

It's bad

Imagine my shock...

The cult will descend on Thembinkosi Rawula like tonnes of concrete, you don't accused Julius malema & Floyd Shivambu of criminality and live. EFFRedFriday EFF EFFMothoMothong

Tsotsis

That lie again

We are not surprised. Once a thief always a thief

No surprise there

🙄.

If my memory serves me well, when Andile Mngxitama left EFFSouthAfrica he made similar accusations.....

😄😃😂🤣 Tell us something we didn't already know !!!!!

That charlatan did not make it on the EFF Parliamentary list so he’s now spewing rubbish, he must ask Andile n them how it feels to be in the political bin.

Im no EFF but this guy is nott a good liar. You have to be convincing atleast

He is too old to lie

Julius_S_Malema e tla ka mona bafanas.

So the member had to wait until he did not make it to the list. Grrrrr

This is allegations until proven.

This member has forgotten where his bread is battered, let’s see how long he will last.

No surprise there

This is obvious moes. Juju had ample training
