We As The EFF Declare That The Year 2025, Is The Year of The Picket Lines. Forward With Service Delivery and Grassroots Activism! #YearOfThePicketLines #EFFPlenum2025

MALEMA: We want the truth to come out. What Mkhwanazi said must be repeated, backed by evidence in the Ad-Hoc Committee and in the Commission of Inquiry…and I am going to sit in that Ad-Hoc Committee to investigate these allegations …and if I’m lucky maybe they will elect me…

MALEMA: I told you a lot time ago that they want to arrest Minister of Police, and that’s why Mkhwanazi is being charged with IPID because they want to pick up Minister of Police, Senzo Mchunu… #EFFPresser

MALEMA: …Masemola was supposed to be arrested that week when Mkhwanazi had a Press Conference… #EFFPresser

MALEMA: Our leadership is on the ground, uhm, and none of us regard themselves as Arm-chair critics or beneficiaries of Palace politics. They know that our survival depends on us working the ground. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: The road to 2026 starts now, and it begins with the people. I THANK YOU! #EFFPresser

MALEMA: In Khayelitsha, we will reaffirm our commitment to defend, build and advance the struggle for economic freedom in the year of the picket lines. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: The EFF has never relied on friendly headlines or elite praises. We speak to the people, and through them, we shape the national conversation. Let this Anniversary be a reminder that the most important voices in this country are not found in boardrooms, press clubs or…

MALEMA: We therefore call on the people of the Western Cape, in particular those in Khayelitsha, Gugulethu, Nyanga, Delft, and Belhar, to come in their numbers. Come and witness a political movement that does not fear the people. Come and be part of a festival of ideas, music,…

MALEMA: In this context, our presence in Khayelitsha is also a political statement: that development must not be a privilege of Camps bay or Stellenbosch, but must reach the forgotten corners of this country. There is no freedom while our people still share toilets with five…

MALEMA: We will ensure that no capture of our institutions will continue and expose all those involved with criminal syndicates and drug cartels at the highest levels of policing. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: The revelations by Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi ought to have indicated to the ruling GNU that cutting allocations to law enforcement capacity is a recipe for disaster. It is for this reason that the EFF proposed the establishment of an ad hoc committee to…

MALEMA: To cut spending in areas such as law enforcement is an indication that there is no regard for the high levels of crime terrorising our people. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: The EFF maintains it position on the anti-poor budget, which is characterised by austerity, borrowing and regressive tax increases in the form of an increase in the fuel levy. We correctly rejected the Appropriations bill which was the final step in the budgeting process…

MALEMA: The EFF will pursue in Parliament mechanisms to drastically and gradually reduce the cost of electricity so that South Africans get value for money, and do not pay more for electricity while receiving less units. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: Eskom was built with public funds, and its energy should not be commodified for profit while the masses are left in the dark. #EFFPresser

MALEMA: This is not the first time that NERSA has enabled Eskom’s exploitation of the people. In 2023, the regulator approved a cumulative 33.77% increase, implemented in two phases: 18.65% in 2023 and 12.74% in 2024. This persistent escalation is proof that the ruling elite has…

MALEMA: Millions of South Africans, already struggling to afford basic necessities, now face deeper economic exclusion and worsening inequality. At a time when food prices, fuel costs, and other essential goods are skyrocketing, imposing yet another electricity price hike is a…

MALEMA: In September 2024, Eskom sought approval for an outrageous 66% multi-year tariff escalation, with a staggering 36.15% increase proposed for 2025 alone. While NERSA scaled down the demand to just over 24%, with a planned 12.7% hike this year and the rest spread across the…

MALEMA: The EFF warned South Africa on the 30th of January 2025 that the decision by NERSA to greenlight Eskom’s 12.7% electricity tariff increase on 1 April 2025 would be reckless and now that reality has kicked in. This move is yet another assault on the working class and the…

MALEMA: The EFF is concerned by the high cost of electricity which is causing distress all South Africans. The uprisings in Tembisa are a signal of how the cost of electricity which is disproportionate when compared by units to prices is going to lead to instability in our…
