EFF leader Julius Malema has called for free education from Grade 1 to 12 and at tertiary level while also advocating for feeding schemes at tertiary institutions.

Covid-19: I vaccinated because the Jewish people vaccinate, says Julius Malema on election campaign trail

He also called for the old-age pension to be doubled because the elderly, especially grandmothers, were the ones who supported African families. “So we must double their money in order for our children to eat at school and to eat at home so that they don’t do any other thing except to be children, even the R350 of children, we want it to be doubled because it’s not enough. You can’t even buy diapers with R350 and it’s finished,” Malema said.

Malema told the large crowd in Madadeni that they should not be enticed by ANC T-shirts, because they had been given T-shirts and no jobs from the time of the late ANC president Nelson Mandela, Thabo Mbeki, Jacob Zuma and now Cyril Ramaphosa but instead they should demand proper housing, jobs and other services from the governing party.

Empty promises that the moronic masses will believe.

Free things are not sustainable in a long term.

Make that free education the same standard as private schools be like Rwanda.

Would agree with that if there was money to pay for it. Do you know how much we pay for education?

Same old song for the past 27yrs,different rendition!!

And it is possible....if Cyril and his friends can chow R500b in 3 months, it means the governmemt can afford free education.
