EFF leader Julius Malema told scores of supporters on Saturday that they cannot vote the same way and expect different results.
Malema was addressing residents during a community meeting held at the Bopedi complex in Tubatse, Limpopo as he began the second leg of the party's campaign ahead of the November 1 local government elections.During his address to community members, Malema lamented the fact that many people in rural communities had no choice but to relocate to urban areas such as Gauteng in search of jobs and better economic opportunities.
“We are suffering in this place, we feel abandoned, we do not have a bridge and we are subjected to cross this river. In rainy season it becomes difficult because we don’t have a choice but have to cross it,” said the woman, who withheld her name. He added that that for many years, residents in the area had asked the ANC to provide service delivery including roads, bridge, running water and more but their plight is falling to deaf ears.
