Julius Malema will deliver his final election message to thousands of party supporters at Orlando Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Economic Freedom Fighters has seen rapid growth in rural areas over the past five years, and has grown a large support base in other parties’ strongholds, especially in KwaZulu-Natal, said spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi on Friday.
After the 2016 local government election, the EFF took a drastic decision to disband its KZN executive and all regional structures in the province in preparation for the 2019 general elections. But the gamble seems to have paid off as support for the party has been swelling since then. “It’s really inspiring because one of the misconceptions was that the EFF is not finding expression and resonance among the older population. But our people, particularly the elderly, have come to appreciate what we are about over the five years. The EFF has grown with the most supersonic speed in the rural areas. Once we reached the villages in KZN, we grew up like popcorn in an oven.”
