Julius Malema is leading the Economic Freedom Fighters party in May elections. Picture: AFP / Wikus de WetSome are pushing an agenda regarding EFF supporters that is disrespectful to black people, Malema told journalists following an event where, according to the EFF’s official Twitter account, the party was “hosting the elderly of Ward 6 in Ekhuruleni to dialogue about how the EFF will change their lives and the communities they come from”.
“I don’t even know if they are members. You see, you are making an allegation which you can’t justify,” was Malema’s responce. Malema then appeared to allege that some were pushing a narrative that EFF supporters were mentally unstable in a bid to disrespect black people as a whole. “This narrative that continues to suggest that they are mad – it’s how black people are being viewed and that narrative must come to an end,” Malema said.
