EFF bleeding members

The red berets seem to be haemorrhaging members. Recently, Dali Mpofu resigned from the party. Before that, former Public Protector Busi Mkhwebane left the EFF. Their resignation followed that of former deputy president and co-founder Floyd Shivambu.

South Africans clap for resignation

Netizens on Facebook believed that her and other members' resignations would open the door to a new order of members.

Daniel Peckstein said:

"All elders must go. EFF is a generational mission."

Siyanda Gqamane said:

"Every successful institution at some stage went through what the EFF is going through right now, and those institutions are still standing."

Dinake Hendrick said:

"I didn't even know her, so we are still fine."

Abutie Isaiah said:

"The nice part about this is that they open up space for young people to lead, so let them leave."
