“If it were according to the capitalist and establishment media wishes, Cyril Ramaphosa would have achieved 80% ANC victory, and yet in reality the ANC support reduced in all provinces under his leadership,” Malema said. “When comparing the 2014 and 2019 General Elections, the EFF recorded the most tremendous growth, meaning that more and more South Africans have confidence in the struggle for economic freedom,” he continued.

He attributed these victories to the work of the “militant and hardworking” ground forces who campaigned for the party.“To these ground forces we say salute and affirm that history will bestow you with the honour of being true soldiers in the war for economic emancipation,” he said.The party has grown substantially, with a tally of 10.79 % of the national vote almost doubling the party’s vote share from the 6.35% it received in South Africa’s last national elections.
