The Afrikaner enclave of Orania has issued a firm rebuke to EFF leader Julius Malema’s recent pledge to dismantle the town, rejecting his characterization of the community as a relic of apartheid.

In a statement posted on Facebook, Orania’s leadership responded to Malema’s claims that the town “undermines national unity,” declaring: *“Orania will not ‘fall’ but continue to build. Our community remains committed to working, developing, and serving our residents.”*

The town emphasized its preference for peaceful engagement, referencing a recent meeting with the EFF where the party demanded Orania be declared unconstitutional due to its exclusively Afrikaner demographic. *“We believe in diplomatic solutions where possible,”* the statement read, *“but we are politically and physically prepared to defend our way of life.”*

The response concluded with a spiritual affirmation: *“Orania exists not just through historical circumstance, but by the grace of our Heavenly Father. We will keep building a future for our people.”*

Founded in 1991 by Carel Boshoff III—son-in-law of apartheid architect Hendrik Verwoerd—Orania has long been a flashpoint in South Africa’s racial discourse. While critics, including Malema, condemn it as segregationist, residents frame it as a project of cultural self-determination. The town’s current leader, Carel Boshoff IV (Verwoerd’s grandson), has overseen its growth, attracting both controversy and curiosity.

High-profile visits by figures like Gayton McKenzie and Siv Ngesi have kept Orania in national debates. With Malema’s latest remarks reigniting tensions, the town’s defiant stance signals an escalating ideological clash over identity, land, and reconciliation in post-apartheid South Africa.

The EFF has yet to respond to Orania’s statement.
