EFF secretary-general Marshall Dlamini on Saturday said the collapse of the ANC in the Free State does not guarantee the red berets are next in line to lead.
But he added: “This province is on autopilot ... and the premier has never said anything about development. All you hear about are the factions in the ANC, that’s what is occupying their term. So this is an opportunity for the EFF to stop paying attention to useless things and focus on making sure that there is leadership in the province.”
Speaking to the SABC on the sidelines of the EFF's third people’s assembly in Mangaung on Saturday, Dlamini said delegates must not become complacent. “We are represented in all of the municipalities and this shows that we have reached all of the corners of the Free State. “Now we need to consolidate and build stronger, not be complacent and think that the dying or collapse of the ANC here in the Free State is an automatic gain for the EFF until we have gone to the people. So we should never be comfortable or complacent because that is dangerous to the revolution.”
