Malema: Youth vote could be decisive
Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema says he believes
the vote of young South Africans could be decisive when all the votes are tallied in the local government
elections.
Malema cast his vote at Mponegele Primary School in Limpopo on Monday.
He said the number of young people at EFF rallies is proof of the interest taken by them in the future of the country.
“At some point I thought there was apathy, but the rallies of the EFF have actually changed my perception in regard to voter apathy within young people.”
Malema said the youth know they will need to play an active role if they want change.
“I think youth highly interested and will come out in numbers. I think they now realised that they can't leave it in the hands of their parents, they too have to take an active path, if they want those changes.”
He also believes victory is imminent for the party.
“We are going to get 65% in Polokwane and in the whole of South Africa. We are aiming for a decisive victory and we have done everything humanly possible.”
