Malema Brands Zuma a “Back-Stabber” as EFF Rejects MK Alliance Amid Leftist Rift

Malema Brands Zuma a “Back-Stabber” as EFF Rejects MK Alliance Amid Leftist Rift

Julius Malema, leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), has launched a scathing attack on former President Jacob Zuma, calling him a “back-stabber” and ruling out any political alliance with his newly formed uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party. The public denunciation highlights deepening fractures within South Africa’s leftist factions, even as both parties share ideological ground on issues like land expropriation and economic nationalism.

The rift comes after MK’s surprisingly strong electoral debut, securing around 15% of the vote in recent elections. Despite their overlapping agendas, Malema has dismissed any possibility of a merger, accusing Zuma’s party of exploiting racial divisions and questioning the former president’s political loyalty. “We don’t associate with opportunists who change allegiances when it suits them,” Malema declared, alluding to Zuma’s history of shifting alliances.

The EFF has also faced internal turbulence, with several high-profile members defecting to MK. Malema branded these departures as “acts of betrayal” by “double agents,” signaling growing tensions between the two radical-left movements. Meanwhile, MK leader Nathi Nhleko has left the door open for future cooperation, emphasizing shared opposition to the current coalition government.

Political analysts skeptical of long-term stability
Observers warn that both parties—built around charismatic but polarizing figures—may struggle to sustain momentum without proven governance structures. “The EFF and MK thrive on populist rhetoric, but their staying power depends on whether they can transition from protest politics to credible policy alternatives,”* said political analyst Lebohang Pheko.

As South Africa’s left-wing landscape fractures further, the rivalry between Malema and Zuma’s factions could reshape the country’s opposition politics. With the ANC’s dominance waning, the EFF and MK’s ability to either unite or divide the radical vote will play a decisive role in the nation’s future power struggles.
