Malema vows to root out corruption at FS, NC manifesto launch
Julius Malema urged party supporters to consider their struggles when they vote
Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema vowed to eliminate corruption within all levels of government, including universities, during the launch of the party's manifestos in the Free State and Northern Cape. The EFF leader criticized the decision by Parliament's Impeachment Committee to revoke the Advocate Thandazani Madonsela's recommendation in the Phala-Phala matter, stating that the party aims to hold President Cyril Ramaphosa accountable for his alleged corruption.
Malema emphasized the need for economic freedom in Mangaung, claiming it as a poorly run metro, and pledged to address water, electricity, and unemployment challenges in the region. He urged EFF supporters to vote for the party in the upcoming local government elections and criticized those who support the current administration, stating that they will not use their vote to steal from the poor.
Malema also called on students to combat corruption within their institutions and demanded free WiFi at all universities. The EFF leader further criticized the high cost of electricity, questioning why South Africans continue to pay exorbitant fees for the service.
