A senior uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party official has delivered a blistering assessment of Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema, accusing him of political stagnation and failing to evolve beyond student activist rhetoric.

Speaking anonymously, the MK figure argued Malema remains trapped in the combative style of his ANC Youth League (ANCYL) and student politics days. “His discourse hasn’t matured beyond campus activism – it’s still filled with war talk, enemies and destruction,” the source said. “Rallying crowds with militant slogans doesn’t equate to presidential leadership.”

Malema’s politics are not maturing, he’s just not growing politically at all.

His politics remains in the level of SASCO, ANCYL, that of tertiary institutions politics.

The criticism highlights growing tensions between the two radical factions as they compete for similar voter bases. Malema, who formed the EFF in 2013 after his ANC expulsion, has maintained his signature fiery approach. But detractors argue this style lacks the nuance required for governance.

“Real leadership demands strategy and nation-building, not perpetual protest rhetoric,” the MK leader added. “After 11 years, he’s still campaigning like a student organizer during orientation week. South Africa needs a president, not a professional provocateur.”

Political analysts note the critique reflects shifting expectations. “Malema’s revolutionary persona served its purpose initially,” said analyst Sibusiso Radebe. “But voters increasingly want solutions, not just slogans.”

The MK Party, aligned with former President Jacob Zuma, has positioned itself as a more substantive alternative to what it calls “performative radicalism.” With elections approaching, the remarks signal intensifying competition between the two groups vying for disillusioned voters.

While the EFF remains influential among youth and working-class constituencies, questions persist about Malema’s ability to transition from opposition firebrand to credible statesman. As one political observer noted: “The test isn’t whether he can fill stadiums, but whether he can fill potholes.”

The EFF had not responded to requests for comment at time of publication.
