IFP & EFF lament high unemployment, focus on return of land on FreedomDay
JOHANNESBURG - Opposition parties have used the celebration of Freedom Day to note the changes the country has made, but also to highlight how long the road ahead still is.
Hlabisa was on a door-to-door campaign in eShowe. He later headed to an IFP rally at KwaKhoza to address supporters."We are going to one of the households where people are living in a shack. After 25 years of freedom our people have no houses, so we are going around to say we are celebrating half-baked freedom."Meanwhile, the Economic Freedom Fighters highlighted the issue of land as the party commemorated Freedom Day.
"Without the land, it is disingenuous to celebrate freedom, because the struggle for freedom centred and originated on the land question."
