A video of EFF’s Vice President Floyd Shivambu attacking a journalist outside of Parliament has surfaced on social media and it seems black twitter has mixed feelings about it.
Here’s the video.
Does @FloydShivambu also need #AngerManagementCourse like @Julius_S_Malema— The Edge Search Funniest Tweets (@TheEdgeSearch) March 20, 2018
But to be honest this Racism #FloydShivambu with two unknown men attacking a journalist in Cape Town. pic.twitter.com/pGjOjbVlOp
Whilst Chivambu has since released a statement apologizing for his behavior. Other social media users still want answers on what the journalist did or say to get attacked whilst others are attacking Chivambu and his party.WATCH: @FloydShivambu with two unknown men attacking a journalist in Cape Town pic.twitter.com/VYXuLSm9zB— Matuba Mahlatjie (@MahlatjieMatuba) March 20, 2018

What EFF’s Floyd Shivambu did by manhandling a journalist was totally unacceptable and wrong.#FloydShivambu— Nkateko Lubisi (@LubisiNkateko) March 20, 2018
Where is the rest of the Video?— I am a wife (@ANhlangeni) March 20, 2018
Where did it start?
What had that man done prior to being manhandled? #FloydShivambu
How does a journalist get attacked IN FREAKIN PARLIAMENT by a member of parliament? @adrian_DK should press charges against @FloydShivambu and lay a complaint with the presiding officers. This is unacceptable. It’s not the first time #FloydShivambu is hostile towards a journalist— IZWELETHU 😭✊🇿🇦 (@miss_andisa) March 20, 2018
I personally have witnessed more EFF members being attacked and some being hospitalized on the same parliament and no one bated an eye and neither did @eNCA run that for the whole day like breaking news #FloydShivambu— EFF – Superior Logic✊🏾 (@EFFexplained) March 20, 2018

The behavior of the #EFF and it’s leadership should not surprised us anymore.😏😏#FloydShivambu pic.twitter.com/egi3DanAKV— Ricardo Mackenzie (@ricardomackenzi) March 20, 2018
Disgraceful hypocrisy from the “fighters”. Apparantly it’s ok to choke people now. Some say “there are no bruises, it can’t be assault”. When a man slaps his wife and she later reports it, must police ask why there is no bruise ?? Don’t be stupid #FloydShivambu pic.twitter.com/ARb9oKKTF0— Alex (@Alex_jh__) March 20, 2018
