On Thursday, the EFF promised chaos, and boy did they deliver. Babalwa Mathulelwa, the party’s Commissar of Ground Forces, delivered another defiant and disgruntled diatribe against Cyril Ramaphosa shortly after their microphones were cut by an enraged House Speaker.
The EFF has labeled Ramaphosa a “money launderer.”
The Red Berets are currently attempting to make the president’s life difficult after he was accused of concealing MILLIONS of dollars at one of his Limpopo farm properties. In the year 2020, burglars raided the house and discovered the cash stash.
Ramaphosa, on the other hand, is accused of attempting to cover up the incident by not reporting it to the police. A large-scale concealment of that much money could be considered illegal, and the SA Revenue Service has been asked to clarify their position on the matter.
The news has set the agenda for the EFF, who claim they are now treating Ramaphosa in the same way they treated Jacob Zuma during the state capture scandal. As Cyril attempted to give a speech on the Presidency’s Budget Vote for 2022, they certainly delivered on that promise.
Ramaphosa’s ‘criminal behavior’ is slammed by an EFF MP.
EFF activists were removed out of the house after a barrage of insults were directed at the ANC leader. After an hour or two, things seemed to quiet down, but as Ramaphosa continued his speech, one of the few remaining Red Berets in Parliament spoke up.
Babalwa Mathulelwa was not shy with her words.
“Before you remove me, you must unmute our microphones… the money launderer must be taken out of the house, we are not going to be addressed by a criminal… I will not listen to a money launderer.”

‘Money launderer’ and other slurs have been hurled at Cyril.
The Sergeant of Arms was summoned to evict the vocal EFF member within seconds of labelling him a money launderer. On Twitter, the party posted a video of the encounter, along with a few extra colorful remarks for good measure.
