Many people uploaded to the EFF to make a move against people who don't do their jobs. Others, naysayers, expressed they have little faith in the party.

Moleko Fanie Mofokeng shared their thoughts:

"The party that needs consistent policies. Everything is based on what Julius Malena tells them to do, and you can not hold a different view from him otherwise, you are expelled without notice. This guy is a real dictator."

Tshepo Malepe said:

"Maybe we'll have 400 new political parties. That's how Mzansi politics rolls."

Ngwana Oa Mobu commented:

"We ain't playing here, we are all here to achieve economic freedom. Laziness will not be tolerated."

"I can't wait to hear their side of the story from those this party dismisses. They must have a press briefing."

"This man has too much anger."

"That party is growing big. Unwanted plants must be expelled, not just to accommodate good things, and rotten eggs, tomatoes or teeth will give a bad name to the people's party. Remember, everyone is targeting CIC next year. I wish you the best, Juju."

Cebo Bhele Makupula agreed:

"Holding people accountable for failing to do their job. All successful organizations do it."

SA casts doubt on Malema's confidence in EFF

Briefly News previously reported that Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema got South Africans talking after expressing his confidence that the EFF will govern after the 2024 elections.

Speaking to the media on Sunday, 27 August, Malema said he would not accept anything but an outright victory in the much-anticipated polls.

The EFF leader's expectations are a bit of a tall order. While the party has grown in number and popularity since it was established 10 years ago, a 50% haul in the polls is a great leap from the 10.80% the Red Berets garnered in the 2019 elections.
