Parliament erupts in violence as EFF forced to leave
Madame speaker's response, "I can not sit here and tell who is security and who is not."
Are you watching the #SONA2015?
Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) members of Parliament were forced to leave the chambers after they demanded and chanted, “Pay back the money.”
Following the removal of the MPs, the DA questioned the speaker of Parliament, Baleka Mbete , whether the personal who removed the EFF MPs were members of the Parliamentary security force, or the SAPS.
The speaker’s response, “I can not sit here and tell who is security and who is not.”
This response was all it took to have the DA MPs leave the House of Parliament.
Seven members of the EFF were injured in the removal of the MPs.
