EFF A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY

ANC has noted with seriousness the conduct of EFF MP's yesterday in Parliament.

This is an act of rebels mask as parliamentarians who are committed to hijack our democracy, parliament and legislatures. EFF is not in parliament to resolve or to engage robustly to solve any problem, but there to cause destruction and anarchy.

They use and hijack parliament and legislatures as laboratory's for political adventurism, we call on parliament to wake up to this reality and defend its integrity.

Millions of South Africans who vote for Political Party's to represent them in parliament, have their hopes and aspirations in parliament and MP's. Parliament therefore, must not allow itself to descend to a kindergarten and betray the hopes of our people.

The violent nature of EFF engagement provokes emotions and this may lead to political intolerance which it's consequences are dire for our democracy.
