WTF?!

 

[HapticSimian]

Reports of shots on 702 30 minutes or so ago; don't know if accurate.

The ANC is broken...

EDIT:

Trollip: I believe that the shot or shots were fired by a member of security who were called in @HeraldPE

Looking more and more like ANC will cling onto power no matter what...

If you look at the SARS kidnapping incident.

 

[Jola]

Democracy must be decolonised !!!

Edit : Hope that they have video of this, the ANC attackers need to go to jail.

Shocking, but not surprised, as this is the ANC showing its true colours.

 

[MickeyD]

Got hit by a flying water jug thrown by an ANC member.

From the amount of blood I assumed someone was shot. Thankfully not but still...stupid barbaric savages

The glasses and water jugs need to be decolonised.

In future only paper cups for the ANC.

Surely those people should be charged with assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm? A water jug can end a person.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Yep, country has TONS of hope right ...... savages will keep savaging until it's all burning

Correct, and in the interim they should be suspended without pay pending the completion of legal proceedings.

However, ambassadorial promotional posts beckon strongly.

Savage party those ANC lot.

 

[Bighit]

See you next Tuesday savages.

 

[Candystore]

See you next Tuesday savages.

Why next Tuesday??

Trollip said the fight stemmed from an item on the agenda about the conduct of an ANC councillor at a recent IDP meeting in New Brighton. Two ANC councillors were apparently asked to leave the chamber after they refused to calm down.

“ANC councillors Makhi Feni and Andile Lungisa approached the speaker’s bench, which is sacrosanct with the view, in my opinion, to assault the speaker,” he said.

A fight ensued, with people “hurling glasses and jugs at full force”.

“DA councillor Rano Kayser is in hospital. One councillor from ANC, Rosie Daaminds collapsed. I did see blood on her face,” Trollip said.

“There are glass shards everywhere. That behaviour cannot be expected in a constitutional democracy. The fact that we can’t have glasses and glass jugs in council is an indictment on us.”

Trollip rubbished reports that the shots had been fired by chief whip Werner Senekal.

“We do not bring firearms to council. One ANC councillor was seen carrying a knife,” he said.

“Senekal was stabbed in the back with a sharp object [a pen]. We will have to step up security unfortunately.”
