South Africans flood social media with different reactions to the claim that Nelson Mandela sold his people out.
In an interview with a young EFF member named Jack Markovitz held outside the Brackenfell residential area, he supported the EFF political party's fight against racism.
In the video which has gone viral, Jack claimed that Mandela sold out South Africans. He added that the protest is to sort out all other problems created by the late legend before he died.

Mzansi Twitter got divided over Jack's claims and some of the reactions are:
#Mandela THREAD Ignorant to call him a sellout. Far right says he should never have been released. Far left calls him a sellout. When Codesa collapsed MK wanted a civil war. At an officials mtg Madiba asked them: how many arms do the apartheid govt have, how many soldiers?... 2/
