JOHANNESBURG - Well-wishes and tributes poured in to wish Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Deputy President Floyd Shivambu a happy birthday.

Among the politicians and social media users who sent celebratory messages was United Democratic Movement (UDM) leader Bantu Holomisa. He used Shivambu’s birthday to, low-key, take a jab at President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Taking to Twitter, Holomisa responded to EFF Leader Julius Malema’s post and said:

“Happy belated Birthday DP. Let’s slaughter 1 ankole for a braai. Happy New Year.”

Many social media users were taken aback by Holomisa’s message, with some expressing shock and others encouraging the beef between Ramaphosa and the UDM leader.
