The film and publication board is warning the public to refrain from posting and sharing videos that incite violence. This is in reaction to a video that circulated on social media with a person claiming to be an EFF

member threatening violence against people who won’t be participating in the party's planned National Shutdown protest.

The board has highlighted that sharing such content on social media is in contravention of the Films and Publications Act which prohibits the distribution of content that incite imminent violence and/or constitute incitement to cause harm.

The team was joined by Dr Mashilo Boloka - CEO of the Film and Publications Board.
