Malema: South Africa will go on stage six load-shedding after elections
Quick Glance: Malema Warns of Escalating Power Outages and Praises Finance Minister Candidacy
  • EFF leader Julius Malema defended his statement that the party would consider entering a coalition with the ANC if EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu was appointed as finance minister.

  • Malema warned that Eskom will move to stage six load-shedding after the elections and strongly criticized the current officials in charge.

  • He emphasized that Shivambu is an expert on the country's economy, the continent, and the world at large, and has not stolen any money.

  • Malema stated that the escalation of power outages after the elections is due to the incompetence of officials, not sabotage.
