Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Deputy President, Floyd Shivambu, says former Finance minister, Pravin Gordhan, was never eligible for the position.

He says he was appointed to the Finance portfolio because he had some exclusive information on former president Jacob Zuma surrounding the “Spy Tapes”.
