@Lebo_sephoka replied:

"Why do you insult the EFF, bro? What have they done? I have never seen you tweeting and insulting any organisation like this. Are you supporting any other political party or getting kick bags like Terry Pheto?"

@Shonny_SA commented:

"They should include you in the national lottery looting alongside Terry Pheto. You’ve been struggling yet you have money."
