# The EFF are calling for Sport, Arts and Culture minister Gayton McKenzie to resign after old social media posts containing racist remarks resurfaced. The EFF spokesperson Sinawo Thambo says the comments are deeply offensive to black South Africans and incompatible with holding public office. Thambo insists McKenzie’s removal would demonstrate zero tolerance for racism. This comes amid wider debate over accountability for racial hate speech, with opposition parties warning against selective consequences.
