EFF to make Ekurhuleni ungovernable

Members of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) vowed to continue protesting and leading protests even in the face of arrests.

Addressing “fighters” who gathered outside the Benoni Magistrate Court on September 11, EFF national Youth commander in chief advocate Thekiso Mosome, said: “They are only trying to weaken us with these arrests but don’t be intimidated, let them arrest all of us if they can.”

He said a protest where no teargas is being fired is not a protest enough.

“We are a protest movement; you must protest until they fire teargas at you and when they do, you should know that you are a threat to the ANC government,” said Mosome.

He said Etwatwa will see more protests.

“We are going to organise protests until the metro listens to all your needs and if they don’t listen we will set our own rules; we will make Ekurhuleni ungovernable,” said Mosome.

Mosome, however, urged EFF members to be disciplined.

“Stay away from damaging property during the protests, just barricade streets,” he said.

Mosome said EFF members left the ANC due to “corruption and nepotism” in the ANC.

Members chanted slogans praising their commander in chief, Julius Malema.
