EFF’s Malema unveils plan to fight every municipal by-election to oust the ANC
The EFF is gunning for all ward by-elections in its drive to unseat the ANC. "We will be participating in all ward by-elections with the sole aim of removing the ruling party from government," said EFF leader Julius Malema. "Anywhere we find an opportunity to remove the public purse from the hand of the corrupt ANC — we shall never hesitate‚ but strike with revolutionary precision." Malema was speaking at his party’s HQ in Johannesburg’s Braamfontein on Monday after the EFF’s third plenum in Kempton Park at the weekend. It was held to discuss strategy and forge a way forward for the party’s national plan of action for 2017 under the theme The year of the branch. "The 3rd national plenum also expressed itself that where the numbers increase in our benefit‚ we shall not only vote with the opposition‚ but we shall also take government‚" Malema said.
