Malema further brought Zuma's parole into the matter saying that people have not shared their comments about it.

According to TimesLIVE, Malema said that if Zuma decides on returning to politics, they would be ready for him. The leader of the 'Red Berets' explained that his party's campaigning in KZN had no bearing on the ANC's inner battles nor does it have anything to do with the civil unrest in July.

The report continued by explaining that Malema stated Zuma was not an 'issue' in the political atmosphere due to the fact that he was retired. He added that community members in KZN had been calling for the party to campaign within the province for a while.

During the SABC News interview, Malema revealed that he would retire at the age of 55. Whether he serves three or four terms as EFF CIC or becomes the president of South Africa, Malema stands by his decision.
