Malema proposes R4 500 monthly grant for pensioners
EFF leader Julius Malema says pensioners should be paid a monthly grant of R4 500
Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has proposed a monthly grant of R4 500 for South African pensioners, arguing that many are the backbone of their families. Speaking at the launch of the EFF’s provincial manifesto in Emalahleni, Mpumalanga, Malema claimed there is enough money available, but accused funds being misappropriated.
He emphasized the importance of supporting pensioners, stating that they are the products of grandmothers who raised families and should be aided in return. Malema urged South Africans to vote to remove the ANC from power, alleging that the governing party has failed to address poverty and corruption.
