A new hashtag has been born that South Africans have been using to express their discontent with the EFF - #RIPEFF. The hashtag has already been used hundreds of times by South Africans who don't want to see the EFF in power.
Some of the reasons cited by many of the locals for the new hashtag is that prominent EFF leaders had encouraged SAcans to welcome Zim nationals into the country, they also mentioned the VBS looting scandal that the EFF was embroiled in, among other reasons.
Briefly.co.za has compiled some of the most interesting tweets made by locals under the #RipEFF hashtag. Read a few of the below:
