JOHANNESBURG – The Economic Freedom Fighters is set to give its side of the story on the VBS Mutual Bank scandal.
EFF leader Julius Malema will brief the media at midday on allegations that Floyd Shivambu’s brother was among those who looted the bank.
The party was drawn into the spotlight after Brian Shivambu was named in the great bank heist report, for apparently receiving R16-million from the collapsed bank.
It has also been reported that Floyd Shivambu received R10-million of that money.
The Democratic Alliance wants Parliament’s Joint Committee on Ethics and Members’ Interest to investigate Floyd Shivambu.
In an interview with eNCA, he dismissed the allegations as fake news.
