The Office of the ANC Chief Whip dismisses the laughable and desperate
claims by the EFF that the ANC has bussed in ‘hooligans’ to Parliament
to “deal with the EFF”, “disrupt the House” and “render it
dysfunctional”. Such a claim can only be an invention of an
overzealous imagination and an uncreative publicity strategy probably
aimed at diverting attention from real acts of hooliganism that took
place in Parliament on Thursday.
Mobilising supporters and MPs to cause
chaos in the institution is a dirty modus operandi for which the EFF,
not the ANC, is infamous and proud. For many years the ANC has been
encouraging members of the public, including its supporters, to visit
Parliament to observe its proceedings. They have always done this
peacefully.
