FRIDAY BRIEFING | Breaking through or bouncing back? Malema confronts SA's political glass ceiling

And he has made no secret of his ambitions. Julius Malema wants to be the country's number one. When his party, the Economic Freedom Fighters , contested its first national election in 2014, just a year after its launch, did well, securing 6.35% of the vote, making it the country's third-largest party. Five years later, it increased its share to 10.8%. for the firebrand politician and his party to achieve.

But if the EFF is watching recent opinion polls, which are snapshots in time, it appears the party has a lot of work to do if it is going to win voters. The Ipsos poll released at the end of April indicated the EFF would get 11.5% of the vote, which is a nominal increase from 2019.
