EFF National People’s Assembly: Malema’s opening address: A socialist gospel according to the men in red

where their leaders were sitting and knelt before them, hands raised, singing in praise. The Economic Freedom Fighters’ congress, dubbed the National People’s Assembly, feels like a mixture of politics and cult, where Malema’s word is the gospel of ultimate truth.

In the presence of diplomats from nine embassies and representatives of EFF structures from six other countries, including Lesotho, Namibia and Liberia, and in the presence of his old chum, former Robert Mugabe minister and aspiring Zimbabwean president Saviour Kasukuwere, Malema went on to blame capitalism for many of Africa’s ills, such as the spread of disease and suffering, and landlessness.

There should be free education, water and sanitation, housing and electricity, health care, and development that benefits everyone – in short, economic freedom. EFF socialism would also include “democracy, human rights, peace and stability”, said Malema. Even though land redistribution without compensation got a prominent mention, it wasn’t a central theme. Ordinary voters, it became clear ahead of the elections in May 2019, are more concerned about jobs than about land – or even ideology.

Malema framed Ramaphosa as part of a bigger problem. “The ruling party has presided over a false macroeconomic policy which was based on a misdiagnosis of South African capitalism,” said Malema, without mentioning the governing ANC by name.They assumed they could implement solutions in South Africa that are cooked in European experiences.” Malema spoke in a negative light about the compromises made by the ANC in 1994, and about the “false unity” that followed.

Colourful jokes like those about Alexandra residents stealing the cheese out of Sandton fridges – first told at his last ANC Youth League conference in 2011 – did not feature this time. Malema stuck strictly to the all-English written script and instead remarked about the contrast between “the concentration camp called Alexandra and the luxury that is called Sandton”.
