Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Leader, Julius Malema says his party is home to Africans, Indians, Coloured and White people.
Addressing the community of Lenasia, south of Johannesburg on Sunday, 14 April, Malema who wore a Palestinian scarf assured members of the townhall that the EFF is an inclusive party.
“Be rest assured this is your home. The EFF is a home of Indians, it’s a home of Coloureds, it’s a home of Whites, it’s a home of Africans.
Even white people are allowed here, and have joined our struggle.
EFF has no problem with white people, that’s why we even vote for them to go to Parliament to represent there.
The EFF wants to protect all our people, and wants peace and stability in our country.”

Amongst his promises to the people of Lenasia, Malema said ending loadshedding, and ensuring that locally produced foods and clothing would be prioritized in communities to support small businesses.
“Loadshedding is man made, to stop loadshedding we cannot destroy our baseload without an already available equal alternative.
We cannot rely on Western countries which say we must destroy our coal power stations and yet they come buy our coal and use it on the other side.
That’s the ANC government for you, spend R8 billion on something that’s not working.
Even now, because we are defeated and confronted with a challenge, you go to your friends and say ‘guys help us.’
One of the biggest coal power stations is found in China.
China has the latest technology where they don’t pollute a lot, so you go and ask for help. You need more power stations, you go to China, Russia, India, anywhere where there are progressive forces and they won’t exploit us and say to them, come and build a power station in South Africa.
Your own power station, we don’t want any money but you will own it for 30-years. After 30-years you hand it over to us.”
Malema said there is a solution to end loadshedding in South Africa but there is an agenda to shut down coal power stations in the country.
