Black Twitter reacts to BLF’s controversial ‘EFFsoldout’ hashtag

Black First Land First, the party headed by Andile Mngxitama has responded to an interview by former treasurer general of the EFF, Maggie Moonsamy in which she said the EFF had sold out.


Moonsamy gave an exclusive interview to Jacaranda FM in which she said the EFF had sold out by agreeing to go into partnership with the DA in last year’s local government elections.

Though the EFF responded to Moonsamy saying she was a closet supporter of president Jacob Zuma and was an attention seeker, Mngxitama’s party reawakened the issue by starting a Twitter trending topic titled #Effsoldout.

BLF’s Twitter account has proceeded to tweet about EFF leader Julius Malema and Lord Robin Renwick, whom they allege is Malema’s London based handler who convinced him to support white capital by going into a coalition with the DA.
