Malema Escalates Feud with Zuma: “Keep Your Distance, I’m Not Scared”

Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema has reignited his long-standing feud with former South African president Jacob Zuma in a fiery address at a rally in Johannesburg on Tuesday. Malema’s emphatic declaration, “Keep your distance, I’m not scared,” was met with thunderous applause from his supporters, marking a new chapter in their fraught political relationship.

The remarks came in response to what Malema described as “veiled threats” from Zuma, accusing the former president of attempting to intimidate political opponents. “We will not be intimidated by anyone, particularly not by a man who has been discredited for an extended period,” Malema said, alluding to Zuma’s controversies during his presidency.

The animosity between the two leaders dates back to 2012, when Malema was expelled from the African National Congress (ANC) under Zuma’s leadership. Since then, Malema has been a staunch critic of Zuma, frequently condemning his involvement in state capture and corruption scandals. Zuma, for his part, has often criticised Malema’s radical rhetoric and growing influence, portraying the EFF leader as a destabilising force in South African politics.

Malema’s latest accusations suggest that Zuma is attempting to manipulate factions within the ANC to maintain political relevance. “He believes he can continue to exert control over South Africa from the shadows, but those days are over,” Malema proclaimed, vowing that the EFF would not shy away from confronting obstacles to progress.

Zuma has not yet responded to Malema’s remarks, but insiders suggest that a statement from his camp may be imminent. Political analysts believe this exchange signals an intensification of the ongoing rivalry between Zuma’s loyalists and Malema’s growing influence on South Africa’s political landscape.

Malema’s criticism of Zuma aligns with the EFF’s broader agenda, which prioritises economic justice and land expropriation without compensation. By positioning himself as a defender of the marginalised and challenging Zuma’s legacy, Malema appears to be bolstering his party’s image as a revolutionary force for change.

“This is not personal,” Malema clarified during his address. “It’s about the future of South Africa. If Zuma or anyone else seeks a confrontation, we are prepared.”

As tensions simmer, the clash between these two political heavyweights is expected to keep South Africa’s political landscape on edge, with both leaders demonstrating their ability to galvanise significant support bases.
