Police Minister Bheki Cele has likened the disruption of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) by EFF members of Parliament on Thursday, to the 1966 assassination of former prime minister Hendrik Verwoerd.

EFF MPs stormed the stage where President Cyril Ramaphosa was sitting during SONA on Thursday.

 
For once I agree with Cele. The EFF likely planned to attack the president. Why else storm the floor. They could have made noise as they always did.
 
"The international community was watching what happened there. I am going to have to answer as to what is going on, and all I am going to say is, 'we've got members who don't respect Parliament or the Constitution of our country'," said Pandor.
Yes, it is called the ANC caucus who routinely rape the constitution.
 
Ja they should have bliksemd them. Thats the only language they know.
What I thought was interesting was that they have a cohort of female parliamentary police officers to deal with the female EFF MPs.

They cannot complain that their female MPs are being manhandled if it is a bunch of woman doing it.
 
The ANC like it when EFF plays to their agenda. but like any two-edged sword, there's always the other side waiting to cut you.
