‘Not pleasing egos’: Shivambu responds to Malema’s rant 

--:--
Former EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu says he is not in the business of pleasing the egos of those who feel betrayed.
Shivambu was announced as the MK Party's national organiser on Thursday at the party’s media briefing.
He spoke to the media for the first time after his departure from the party he helped start. Shivambu said the opposition should put aside their “very strong egos”.
“We should unite all the progressive forces into a common agenda because this thing of small parties [is] not sustainable for the future of black people in South Africa. When you have multiple of these, they end up being fiefdoms of individuals.”
Earlier this week EFF leader Julius Malema addressed his party members in Gauteng after Shivambu’s shock exit, and repeatedly said the party had been “confronted by betrayal of our struggle for economic freedom in exchange for personal gains”, telling prominent members to speak up during the party’s “testing moment”.
