ANC Youth League spokesperson Floyd Shivambu has admitted that his engagement this week with a News24 journalist in which he repeatedly used the f-word to dismiss an enquiry was unfortunate.
In a statement, Shivambu promises that it will never happen again.
He also stresses that the incident does not represent the attitude of the League to the media in general.
But he includes an attack on what he refers to as the “right-wing, Afrikaans media”, accusing them of employing “disgustingly provocative methods” in their enquiries.
