Malema says research shows the EFF is gaining support in Western Cape


The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader, Julius Malema, says having the party’s 12th year celebrations in Khayelitsha, outside Cape Town, will consolidate its support in the Western Cape.

Malema addressed the media in Cape Town, ahead of the party’s anniversary rally this weekend.

It is the first time the party celebrates its birthday milestone in the province.

The party says it has erected a dome that can accommodate 10 000 people and expects it to be packed.

Malema says their research shows that the party is growing its support in the Democratic Alliance (DA) governed Western Cape.

“Research shows that the EFF is going to have a huge increase in the WC and EC…so we are here to consolidate the ground. Because this is where we are going to grow this year and going forward,” says Malema.
