EFF leader Julius Malema and the party’s top brass will have to apologise to President Cyril Ramaphosa, give up a month’s salary, and will not be allowed to attend the State of the Nation Address (SONA) next year as punishment for storming the stage during the president's address this year.
On Wednesday, Parliament’s Powers and Privileges Committee deliberated on the sanctions for Malema, EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu, the party's secretary-general Marshall Dlamini, Vuyani Pambo, Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, and spokesperson Sinawo Thambo, after the six were found guilty of contempt of Parliament.
During this year’s SONA on 9 February, EFF MPs started raising several points of order and National Assembly Speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula ordered them to leave the chamber.
