Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has reportedly been suspended from Parliament for 30 days without pay for his role in disrupting President Jacob Zuma's speech in the National Assembly on August 21.

Malema and 19 EFF Members of Parliament were found guilty on all charges relating to the disruption.

The EFF representatives were reportedly unhappy with President Zuma's answers relating to the R246-million upgrades to his Nkandla home.

News channel eNCA reported that some of the MPs were suspended without pay for 14 days days while other were told to apologise for their behaviour.

According to a News24 report five other high-ranking EFF MPs were also handed 30-day suspensions from Parliament, also without pay. Floyd Shivambu is reportedly one of the members handed a 30-day suspension
