Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema says the party will do all it can to put a stop to political killings in KwaZulu-Natal if elected into power. Malema further commended KwaZulu-Natal provincial commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi in his fight against crime in the province.
A total of six suspects were killed in a shootout with police yesterday.
The EFF leader was speaking in Esikhawini, KwaZulu-Natal, as part of the party’s election campaign in the province.
“We are at war with South African criminals.” They have vowed to destroy our ladies, and Mkhwanazi is handling those offenders well. He may have dropped four people who were committing cash-in-transit robberies when I entered Kare today alone. That’s the language that the bad guys speak. Malema continues, “They open fire on the police we drop them.”
