What's @Trending: X users throw brickbats and bouquets at Floyd Shivambu

Floyd Shivambu’s removal as MKP Secretary-General by party-president Jacob Zuma created a stir on X

@MogomotsiLebot2 Fekile Mbalula was right. Floyd Shivambu didn’t finish a year as the MK Party SG. Will he finish the year as an MP? The jury is still out. It all depends on if he pleases Ivanka Zuma.PS: Please let me know when Julius Malema press conference starts, I’ll cancel my meetings.

@verashni It’s kinda hilarious: Jacob Zuma’s MK party has axed Floyd Shivambu as secretary general for ‘poor administration’ when the party is such a shambles - with or without Floyd’s help. Poor Floyd, what did he think was going to happen venturing into this snake pit?

@DanCorderOnAir Floyd Shivambu is the story of Icarus. Icarus made wings of feathers and wax so he could fly. This made him think he was more powerful than he was. He flew too high, too close to the sun, even though everyone warned him not to. The wax melted, the wings fell apart, Icarus fell.

@VITO_G_Wagon “I’m not going to apologise for going to see Shepherd Bushiri in Malawi” – Floyd Shivambu

@AfricaisBlack Floyd Shivambu’s greatest talent? Betrayal with a side of lies! First, he claims Zuma approved his fugitive-Bushiri church visit. Now, crocodile tears – ‘Oh, it wasn’t consistent with MK’s constitution’. The only consistent thing about Floyd? His treachery! #FloydTheFlipFlop.

@Lebona_cabonena Zuma is a wise man, he made Floyd Shivambu draft the constitution of the MK Party, then used the same constitution to remove him. Chess Master!

@EdgarLegoale I’m close to a few senior leaders in the EFF, and they often tell me that when Floyd Shivambu was in the EFF, he was like a king commanding power and respect. Since he left to join Jacob Zuma’s MK Party, it’s like he’s become a nobody. His removal is a signal that Zuma didn’t trust him. I remember someone saying: “If you sell your brother, the buyer won’t trust you.” Its clear now that they brought him in to weaken the EFF, but it didn’t work. He rattled them, but didn’t destroy them. Now, he’s become more of a liability than an asset. The Malawi issue was just an excuse to remove him.

@Collen82241585 Duduzile Zuma demonstrated her powers and showed Floyd Shivambu as to who is the real decision maker in the MK Party.@MisInfoCrusherIt’s about time that Floyd Shivambu exercise this option to return to the EFF. “The EFF constitution doesn’t allow members to go and come back. But Floyd is welcome to come back when he decides to”, ~ Julius Malema

@miShumoZA_ Not only is Bushiri a fake prophet, where is he when Floyd Shivambu needs him the most.

@Patricia_Bantom Floyd Shivambu is going to be the president of this country. I don’t know how, when or where, but he is the president in waiting.

@newslivesa “I don’t work with Floyd Shivambu anywhere Parliament or Soccer Match or anything, I don’t work with @FloydShivambu his issues have nothing to do with me” EFF President Julius Malema. “I’m not getting involved, where was he going, so it’s not our problem, we are in Parliament we are working in Parliament and that’s It, if he comes to Parliament he will find us rolling” @Julius_S_Malema
