Julius Malema, President of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), is scheduled to address the Gauteng EFF Provincial Ground Forces Forum at Orlando Community Hall in Soweto on August 19, 2024, at 18:00.
This event comes in the wake of significant internal changes within the EFF, notably the departure of Floyd Shivambu, Malema’s former deputy, who has joined the MK Party. Malema’s speech is anticipated to address the party’s future direction and possibly the implications of Shivambu’s exit.
The EFF is currently in the process of finding a new party whip following Shivambu’s departure. Discussions and posts online reflect a mix of support for Malema and speculation about the impact of Shivambu’s move, with some members expressing loyalty to Malema and the EFF’s ongoing mission for economic freedom.
