Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema also told residents the EFF was fighting crime for them, and would continue to do so.
Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema drew on shared historic oppression to highlight a need for unity in his address to Eldorado Park residents on Wednesday.
“They wanted to divide us and not allow us to see ourselves as one thing. They did so in the ’50s and they said ‘you are coloured, I’m an African, he’s an Indian’. But we are all oppressed. “The drug lords here in Eldorado Park work with Bheki Cele’s police. They distribute drugs through the police vans and they are protected by the police.”“We have established a special unit for the first time under Metro Police, under the EFF MMC , a special task-force that goes around fighting dangerous criminals.
