‘it is the time now for the ANC to look for its children’. Julius Malema calls out to the mother ship for help.
The EFF press briefing after local elections losses, turned into everything else other than a briefing about the EFF. If you did not know better, you would have thought that it was an ANC press briefing about ANC election losses. Julius Malema took his time blaming the ANC for the losses in the elections.
The EFF CIC blamed Ramaphosa for the ANC and black parties (EFF) losing votes. He went back in time to 2024 when Jacob Zuma demanded for Ramaphosa to resign in order for the MK to join the GNU, and he said the ANC should have listened to Zuma and boot Ramaphosa out for the sake of unity of the children of ANC. Malema said “we are in this mess because of him (Ramaphosa)”.
“it is the time now (for) the ANC to come back,,, the ANC must come back and say ‘let me go back and look for my children, my brothers, my cousins that i have lost because of my arrogance on the way’. It is an opportune moment for MK, for EFF, for communist party, ANC, to come together and reject the enemy forces”, said Julius Malema.
Malema continued on a rant that blames everyone else for EFF loses, except himself. He blamed Ramaphosa for rejecting the chikdren of the ANC, he blamed Mbuyineni Ndlozi for not voting, and also blamed the DA for being the enemy and winning the votes of black people. But at no point did Malema turn the finger of blame on himself for the EFF loses.
It is in this desperate times, however, that Malema sees the necessity for unity of “black parties” . He even calls the EFF and himself as children of the ANC. The confusing part of it all is that, the EFF said it out loud in its formative stages, that its mission is to get the ANC out of power. As thus, The day of the fall of the ANC should not be the day of lamentations for the EFF, it should be the day of celebrations.
Well, it it hard to celebrate the death of another when you are dying yourself as well. Both the EFF and the ANC are dying, and there is no miracle in sight that can save them at this time. If history is anything to go by, all the parties that ever lost the trust of the people in south africa, they never got a second chance.
At this point, Julius Malema is calling for the so-called “black parties” to highjack the will of the people. The results of the elections are a clear indication that the people don’t want a black-only government. No matter what Malema feels about white parties, or the outcome of the elections, the people of South Africa have given those white parties a chance to lead in government. It is not up to Malema to decide otherwise.
The question now is, will the ANC mother ship go out to look for and rescue its children, as Malema and the EFF sound the distress call? Will the reunion of the ANC and the EFF help them survive?
