Sizwe drags Floyd Shivambu

Reacting to a video made by former uMkhonto we Sizwe Secretary General, Floyd Shivambu, Sizwe, on Monday, 23 June, dragged him, saying he was acting too desperate.

"Your problem is you don’t know how to execute, and you move like you’re desperate @FloydShivambu. Chill bro, didisa. Lie low for like two months or something, then come back and say you’ve consulted. Not this thing!" he exclaimed.

Floyd Shivambu hits back at Sizwe

The controversial politician took Sizwe's words seriously and told him to stay in his lane. He dragged Sizwe Dhlomo for being entitled to how he makes decisions on a way forward, like implementing his political party.

"I humbly think you have an over-exaggerated view of yourself, brother. I don’t know you, have never spoken to you, but you seem like you feel entitled to how I do politics. I don’t know what you do, and I humbly advise that you focus there. Please!"

SA picks side in Sizwe and Floyd spat

Netizens have shared their divided opinions on the heated twar, with people agreeing with Sizwe, while others called him out along with Shivambu.

@cwenga09 argued:

"Or whatever Sizwe, who cares? Must @FloydShivambu now give you attention over and over again? You have your land, one you bragged about here. You have money, career, famous friends, you have all you need to centre your life around. Floyd's life is his politics."

@_Segametsi said:

"I don't know how these things work, but I think Sizwe was actually offering Floyd an informal PR reset. He’s saying, "You look wild right now; here’s a way to fix it without losing face." Floyd being Floyd... responded like a wounded celebrity, not a calculated politician."

@haploz99 exclaimed:

"Unfortunately, social commentary doesn't work like that, it's merely derived from public discourse and public occurrences and not dependent on whether they know you in person or not. Suffice to say you surely need a rest from the blows you have been absorbing lately!"
