EFF leaves SA unimpressed

Many social media users agreed that the political party does not inspire much confidence in the country:

@Mncwabe4Themba said:

“At times and in fear, I sense a coalition government between the ANC and DA... Cyril Ramaphosa is their favourite, and they are funding him to win in December... If he doesn’t win, the courts will nullify the ANC National Elective Conference in December.”

@matlhapa_abbey commented:

“He can only continue to wish because there is a massive decline in the EFF membership because of the indecisiveness and inconsequential of Malema. Leadership is about principles. Have a clear public discourse and stop conditioning people. We don’t have the same level of comprehension.”

“The EFF would create bigger misery than the ANC and I rate the ANC a big fat zero.”

@bthsmart stated:

“EFF is just a more violent ANC RET faction anyway. They hate and love all the same people. Make all the same false promises. Are equally corrupt. So, what does it matter?”

@ben_stala added:

“He is not yet finished with his criminal case, how will he unseat the ANC? He never comes up with new thing, they always go after ANC.”
