Malema calls for free water and electricity for grant beneficiaries
Malema has called on the electorates to vote for the EFF and remove the African National Congress
Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has renewed his demand for social grant recipients to be relieved of the burden of paying for water and electricity. Addressing supporters at a rally in Nkomazi, Mpumalanga, Malema's Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) has advocated for the taxpayer-funded grants to not be used to finance municipal services.
The EFF official made the remarks during his speech at the Tshela Thupa rally held at KaMaqhekeza Stadium. Malema urged voters to cast their ballots for the EFF in the upcoming local government elections on November 4th, emphasizing that the party's Nkomazi mayoral candidate, Mafia Fane, is young, dynamic, and capable of tackling the municipality's service delivery issues.
"We gave you a young person," Malema stated, "We gave you the energy, the energy that you want. You have to give yourself a reason why you are going to vote for the EFF."
