Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>It seems every time Floyd Shivambu speaks about his exit from the EFF he leaves a sour taste in the mouths of the red berets.<\/p>\n

Shivambu, in a recent interview on the SMWX podcast, claimed most EFF leaders were aware of his move to the MK Party. He said he was the brains behind “most” of the building of the EFF as a brand.<\/p>\n

\u201cI played a central role in founding, in terms of how it got constructed. It\u2019s not a secret I conceptualised the EFF, the name, references of commissars, commander-in-chief (CIC), seven cardinal pillars, the founding manifesto and all its key documents, including those that constitute the third National People\u2019s Assembly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His remarks sparked public statements from EFF members.<\/p>\n

EFF MP Sixolise Gcilishe called Shivambu \u201cevil\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cFloyd is in the right place now. They flock together. That guy is a personification of evil,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

EFF National Council of Provinces delegate Naledi Chirwa said: \u201cIt\u2019s called jealousy. He is teaching us in real time why we should not be friends with people who envy us. To think he was going to be the first person [EFF leader Julius] Malema\u2019s sons call when he dies is horrifying to say the least. We are not sad about losing him. He saved us from himself.\u201d<\/p>\n
