EFF ordered to apologise to Ramaphosa for SONA disruption
Updated | By Cliff Shiko
Six senior EFF officials including party leader Julius Malema and his deputy Floyd Shivambu have been ordered to apologise to President Ramaphosa for disrupting his State of the Nation Address.
They have also been ordered to say sorry to the National Assembly Speaker, Parliament and the public.
Parliament's Powers and Privileges Committee has found the MPs guilty of being in contempt of Parliament after they crossed the floor and stormed onto the podium where Ramaphosa was giving his address earlier this year.
They were demanding accountability on the Phala Phala matter.
