Ramaphosa leading counter-transformation agenda: EFF's Shivambu
Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa has hit back at the EFF's Deputy President Floyd Shivambu, saying instead of launching personal attacks, he should use his "brilliant brain" to contribute to ideas which will move the country forward.
In his question to Ramaphosa in the National Assembly, Shivambu brought up the issue of lack of access to shelf space for start-up businesses.
He says multinationals are instead occupying the shelf space, with black South Africans fronting for them.
He referred to some businesses which he says belong to Ramaphosa.
#Shivambu: all black role players who are trying to enter into those shelf spaces are being refused. #Parliament

In his reply, Ramaphosa said he does not have interests in some of the businesses that Shivambu mentioned and advised him to get his facts right before making claims.
Ramaphosa: Issue that we should be concerned with is challenge of monopolies in impeding growth, not launch personal attacks #DPQuestions
