EFF: Latest news, policy updates and what it means for South Africa
Want quick, clear coverage of the Economic Freedom Fighters? You’re in the right place. This tag gathers reports, reactions, and analysis about the EFF’s moves in parliament, court cases, rallies, and election cycles. Expect straight talk — no jargon — so you can see what matters and why.
What we cover
We track the EFF’s public statements, policy pushes, and major events. That includes high-profile speeches by Julius Malema, policy proposals like land reform and nationalisation, party congress outcomes, legal battles involving leaders, and how EFF actions affect voters and other parties. If the EFF holds a march, changes a policy line, or reshuffles leadership, we report the facts fast and explain the likely impact.
Our coverage also checks claims. When the EFF makes big promises, we look for sources, numbers, and context. You’ll find short explainers that break down complex topics — for example, what “land expropriation” would mean in practice, or how a proposed mining policy could affect jobs and investment.
