This as the party marks its 10th year anniversary on Saturday with thousands of EFF supporters expected to converge at FNB Stadium in Soweto.
The crowds will be entertained by popular musicians including Makadzi, Ami Faku, Emtee and Young Stunna amongst others following the official programme.Proceedings are expected to kickoff at noon with EFF President Julius Malema scheduled to speak at 2pm. The member of the EFF’s Central Command Team, Hlengiwe Mkhaliphi has lashed out at those who criticised EFF of encouraging its members to open their doors to Africans in the country.
“We are very clear that we as EFF for Africans and let me just state this one without fear or favour to anyone, that we are proud to being Africans. You know Africans are hated all over, so it can’t be that EFF can say now if you are an African from Zimbabwe or Malawi you’re not accepted in SA – it can’t be.”
‘We are one as Africans. These borders were also as a result of colonialism. We are still standing for our manifesto and our position that there is not foreigners in Africa,” adds Mkhaliphi.
