The party has taken issue with Zikalala after he was seen physically assaulting an alleged looter during an oversight visit last month.
DURBAN - The Economic Freedom Fighters has on Thursday called on its members to disrupt KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala’s public appearances, referring to him as an enemy of black people.
Thirty-six people were killed in the area during the unrest last month, while a number of arrests have been made. “Fighters, Sihle Zikalala must never address any meetings in this province. If you hear that he has a public conference, take over that thing.” “If every time the EFF is in confrontation with racists, they take the sides of the racist, we are going to make them our enemies.”Some residents said they were unsettled by the racialised tone of the demonstrations but no security issues have so been reported.EFF supporters have handed over a memorandum to the Phoenix police station demanding that the government make sure that those responsible for killings in the area are prosecuted.
