EFF leader Julius Malema used his speech at the party’s 10th anniversary celebration at FNB Stadium in Soweto to take a swipe at those who had said the party would not survive more than a year.
On Saturday, Malema addressed95 thousands of EFF supporters from all over the country, who came to celebrate the party’s milestone of reaching 10 years.
He said “doomsayers” had written off the party and had even said it would “never achieve 1% of the vote” when it was formed in 2013.
“They said EFF was only passing by. EFF is not going anywhere, EFF is still here, and EFF is still going to be around. Whether they like it or not. They are witnessing history today,” Malema said to loud cheers from the crowd.
The EFF is the third largest party in the country.
