KIMBERLEY - Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema is optimistic about the party's prospects in the 2024 elections.

He expressed confidence during a campaign address in Kimberley's Galeshewe Township.

Expanding influence in Frances Baard

While addressing party members, Malema outlined the EFF's campaign strategy, highlighting efforts to make inroads in the Frances Baard region around Kimberley.

He said his region, with over 120,000 registered voters not yet under EFF dominance, presents an opportunity for the party to strengthen its presence, reported SABCNews.

ANC's predicted decline

Malema supported his confidence by referencing a report from Ipsos, which indicated a decline in African National Congress (ANC) support below 40% in the 2024 elections. He emphasised this point by saying people who believe the ANC will win need serious medical checkups.
