The three expelled EFF MPs say that they are going to challenge their expulsions in the South Gauteng High Court according to reports.

The group has put in an application for a high court review of the EFF's national people's assembly, as they believe the congress was flawed and manipulated to "produce Julius (Malema) and Floyd (Shivambu’s) leadership" according to IOL.

“The EFF, its constitution and its national disciplinary committee are not above the laws of this country… so the disciplinary committee’s (findings) are not important,” said Mpho Ramakatsa, one of the expelled officials.

The other two are Andile Mngxitama and Khanyisile Litchfield-Tshabalala.

A fourth, Lucky Twala, has been ordered to tender a public apology, and has been suspended for three years.
