Economic Freedom Fighters deputy president, Floyd Shivambu has argued the the political analyst, Prince Mashele who published an unauthorised book of Herman Mashaba, has been singing for his supper throughout.
Shivambu is one of those who have heavily criticised the political analyst for being unethical. He said people should never have taken them seriously after it emerged that the book he published was unauthorised.
The exposé was made this week, and social media is inundated with criticisms about the issue. Floyd Shivambu said he is glad that those in Herman Mashaba’s circle are exposing each other.
“So this guy was singing for supper throughout? That is what this group that once called itself Midrand something do. I’m not shocked by the revelations of fraudulent book publishing.
What surprises me are people ever took Mashele and his friend serious about anything. It is good they are exposing each other,” said Floyd Shivambu.
ANC comrade in the Kwa-Zulu Natal province, Nathi Sithole argued that maybe the political analyst who published Herman Mashaba’s book unauthorised must start insulting former president Jacob Zuma so he could get away with it.
Sithole argued that many people in South Africa have been running away from being held accountable by insulting the ANC veteran, Jacob Zuma.
“Prince Mashele must just get a platform and insult president Zuma everyday and get away with all this. It always work in South Africa. A lot are rich today using president Zuma’s name,” said Nathi Sithole.
“Now that the small skeletons are out between Prince Mashele and Herman Mashaba, could it be that all the political analysis Mashele was providing, was in fact funded and carefully spread to ensure that it positioned Mashaba as a better politician. Since he had paid R12.5 million for a positive narrative and public relations?” A social critic said.
