Reflecting on EFF national protest
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ต.ค. 2024
- EFF leader Julius Malema has hailed the party's national protest a success. Malema said the most significant indicator that the EFF had achieved its purpose was that "the biggest centre of the economy in the whole of Africa, Sandton City was closed without burning any building or looting. Malema, who led the protest in Pretoria with other EFF leaders walked hand-in-hand with the leader of the African Transformation Movement (ATM) Vuyo Zungula, and Carl Niehaus, the leader of the newly formed African Radical Economic Transformation Alliance. Other political party leaders who attended the march which has been largely hailed as peaceful include PAC's Mzwanele Nyhontso, and Mzwanele Manyi of the ATM. Professor Bheki Mngomezulu, the Director of the Centre for the Advancement of Non-Racialism and Democracy at Nelson Mandela University and joins us virtually.

Man I never thought I'd see the day I say it's nice to have electricity for consecutive days. Thanks EFF!
😂😂
😅😂😂
Correct the EFF got what they wanted
No , they didn't.Ramhaposa didn't resign and loadshedding continues.
excellent strategic move from eff and cic exposing the short comings of the gov and president and co. exposing who really owns our economy, who calls the shots
Santaco is now captured by government 😂😂 who ever captured them must be ready for their violence I want to know who money are they getting as Malema stated how are they distributing the money 😢
Well done ✅ EFF members and all political parties who join. Special thanks to all South African who joined the protest although don't share same views as my political party but understood what EFF was fighting for is for the interest of all as south African
Well said it my brother...the EFF has brought the country to a standstill and it was a success... Viva EFF Viva ❤️
Proud of EFF peaceful March 😊❤
🤡
If the police and army not deployed, buildings would have been burnt.
Salute to the people who march yesterday. It took courage to get up leave yur house and persevere, bravo
Thank you we doing for everyone in South Africa just like we did with Zuma remove corruption
for 4 days no loadsheding
Im not an EFF supporter but I approve the movement. South Africa's still got some bite. We're not dead yet! Viva South Africa lets kick these thieves out. Africa should follow suit. Its time to stop allowing individuals to ruin the lives of millions
As long some so called educated and elite still price the resources and they are exported raw the situation wont change.
I really respect Mr malema the way love african continent ❤from Ethiopia 🇪🇹
If you differ with Ramaphosa he then threatens you with the police...it happened before in Marikana. The man is only interested in making more & more money than caring for the people of this country.
Which is why the whole ANC and DA criminals must be voted out on 24
These are the types of people we want to see here on screens. He's very honest
I did NOT march because I was afraid of the 3400 soldier army of Mr Concomitant action. I thought RamAnkole would unleash Marikana4 and leave on a high note of Marikana4.
True ramaphosa is his things to kill black people
Thumbs up professor
Proud of the EFF❤❤❤❤
🤡
Proudly South African...Weldone EFF
Revealing gvn plans ahead of shutdown to me means taking the nation into confidence as this is a common concern. The March went on well.
Much Respect ✊ forever and always, for the might EFF leadership and it's members am proud of you my people ❤️❤️🔥🔥🇿🇦
Well said prof.
EFF has made . This party got power more than any other
Nhlanhla is an Agent of the state
Don't talk bad against him please!
This was a successfully and peaceful shutdown and tnx to Juju we really needed this long weekend 😊❤

Big Up!! EFF. well done. ❤😅
Well Done Eff 👏
All we need is to unite and the land thieves will leave of their own volition.
That's is so very true, the oneness of love, and unity and a devotion to righteous activities will signal that the time of change has come. The land thieves themselves will know that their time has come. They will slowly but surely leave on their own account. This will happen organically on it's own if South Africans minds are correct.
Lol .I don't consider Bantu migrations as land invaders as they have assimilated themselves by now.Kweres tho such as yourself .Your illegal days are up
EFF bravo for standing firm to uproot corruptive leadership not only in Africa but in the World
Two days without Loadshedding. Waaaaah
That's a clear indication that security cluster under normal circumstances are just reluctant to do their work.
Prof ❤
Thank you to the police force who ensured peace prevailed in areas that were covered 🙏 👌. The loss for businesses is an economic failure we don't need.
The protest went well, with no violence. Thanks to the boots on the grounds ...thumbs up to the police for an excellent job..it is why there was no violence..thanks to ceril for restricting loadshedding keep the people safe and not anxious...give credit where credit is due!
The rand dropped as the number of businesses were closed. EFF did succeed 👏👏👏👏
It didn’t drop far enough cause white monopoly Capital is still in South Africa!!
Even if it can drop to zero, we won't be intimidated by ANC and DA criminals, you are an ANC satanists who believe in evil of eating alone whilst the masses suffer, on 24 your ANC criminals will be voted out
The rand is dropping because you can't produce economic output with electricity for less than 12 hours per day.

Many counselors houses have been bombed but Bheki Cele never visited.
It was staged... ALLEGEDLY
Their plan to frame the eff for the bombing backfired badly.......all evidence points to failed plan.
Maybe if ANC can be so responsive to crime we can sheer them by using all their security clusters not to fight South Africans. Infact why they use state resources for fighting their political battles yet we are experiencing a plight of South African cars being hijacked and sent to Mozambique in the presence of such security we have
Very true
Somehow, Bushiri managed to get out...
Do you think the government care about you ?
Thank u nokukhanya what he did it took be back in 2012 where he deploit police ,army including morgue cars to kill black man coz they were marching for the increase Cyril ramaphosa will be haunted for the rest of his life
They don't care about you Nokhanya...
Prof Mngomezulu is missing the point. The aim of announcing the security strategy was to intimidate the aspiring protesters. It was more of a preventative measure but unfortunately that intimidation may have affected the actual numbers of people who went on the street to protest.
I was at a protest peaceful n high discipline .. the PROBLEM is our pedestrian citizenry, n I dare say they deserve this abuse from these thugs called govt.
Contrary to the Prof opinion on the security sharing information on the protest. The aim of law enforcement agent in relation to civil unrest is to protect lives and properties and to ensure peaceful demonstration. The focus shouldn’t be to hide and catch culprits unaware. If sharing the information would make protesters behave peacefully, then sharing such information is more useful for the society at large than to allow damages just to catch offenders.
"We congratulate ourselves for doing the bare minimum that is expected from a protest and staying civilized"🤤😂
The devils are mad 😂
Well done eff...matured leader..Our economy, our mines ..our land and our dignity will be restored...Shame to all sellouts and puppets..how long will we continue to accept an exclusion from the economy?
A student from the ANC days of.. ''make It ungovernable'' MALEMA now practice on the poor to get himself rich just like his life skills partners the ANC so yes well done
But that's not a fair comment. You can't come here and announce that malema is corrupt when factually there's no court of law that came to such a determination. At least when you make such claims, you should at least provide evidence which then will accompany claims. You may not like julius malema as a person and you're allowed to do so. But to go to a level where you lable people of none existing things is very low.
Rhamaphosa deployed the SANDF because he was afraid of a coup.
As Malema said, who announces a coup two months before the coup? That's just stupid.
Thanks EFF for giving us electricity
And when I woke up this morning.... BOOM ESKOM power off
Has the SABC now become the mouthpiece of the EFF?
SABC states facts❤❤❤
Go watch 702 or Renaldo you boeremag supporter 😂

Lux got more Attention from this Shutdown.Bheki Cele went to go To Lux instead of Visit Prisons where Intimidated Youth went and should Release These Eff Supporter and not make them Criminals.
Lux needs your help..🧨That nyaope boy is a having meltdown... Condolences to his entire family 💔💔
Love a one on one with malema
Land expropriation without compensation that’s what South Africans said with the public participation.
The reason they announced the security deployment was to provide confidence to businesses and citizens who weee afraid of the march turning into the looting that happened in June 2021.
Funny enough crime is being done every day in south Africa but u never see such police deployment against crime...... So business ad structures are more important than people life's
The June 2021 looting was carried out by the RET faction of ANC fighting for Jacob Zuma. ANC is really intimidated by EFF and how it has grown.
The EFF has exposed ANC and DA racists are one thing...That nyaope boy needs help🤭😁Hows his Family ? 💔💔
He needs rehabilitation on a serious note
Nyaope boy indeed
True
Every one has a right to protest but don't force people to support polititions. Leave that to ballot box The problems were getting sorted Escom New Minister New Broom ☘️🙄🙄😃 Move Forward SA 🇿🇦🇿🇦
Bring the country to a standstill ? Really. And that is the complete take away of the day. How useless is that? What a waste of money.
I was so disappointed to hear dt Bheki Cele went to Nhlanhla Lux home while he didn't go to AKA'S scene and I South Africa inamaphoyisa angaka namasosha ukuzofeza izinhloso zeANC bcs of Malema ekhalaza ngogesi ne youth unemployment nokuthi kwehliswa uPresident esikhundleni while kuliwa ngamaphoyisa namasosha bcs bene power omama bemizi nobaba bemizi laba okudlalwa ngabo ngalana uhulumeni akanayo imali yokukhokhela amaphoyisa ngi10% kusenzima shame kulelizwe
It's because he's the Anc agent this Lux guy
Am disappointed too xeim
I'm concerned about Cele and police commissioner why they allow private security company wearing police combat on shutdown , fidelity, bhekanibantu and other private security ,I'm very shocked
But they must accountable for it
Invite Mashele there l want to here something
What I think everyone is ignoring is the rhetoric that Malema, the EFF and those associated with them, are engaging in and ignoring what happened in 2021 during the last shutdown.
The deployment of police and security clusters in response to protests is to help prevent the recurrence of the kind of violence and property damage that occurred during the previous shutdown which resulted in significant property damage and loss of life, which also highlighted the need for better preparation and coordination between law enforcement agencies during this shutdown.
It's worth noting the deployment of police and security clusters in response to protests may create the perception that the government is behaving irrationally and attempting to oppress the people, even if the deployment is a necessary response due to the violence and property destruction that occurred in 2021.
Moreover, the optics of a heavily militarized response can also contribute to an atmosphere of fear and intimidation among the public.
In conclusion, the deployment of police and security clusters can play an important role in maintaining public safety and preventing the recurrence of the kind of violence and property destruction that occurred previously. However, it's was crucial that law enforcement agencies deployed an appropriate number of personnel and used a measured approach that respects the rights of individuals to protest peacefully which I believe they did for the most part barring bad actors on both sides.
What you fail to understand is that protest and looting are two different things and there's no relation that EFF protest is a proof of that. I think this is the biggest protest we have experienced in SA and it was well organized and peaceful.
@@ckoriablack You make a valid point that protest and looting are two different things, but you also have to acknowledge that the phrasing "shutdown" is also used to refer to the widespread protests, looting, and violence that occurred in July 2021.
We are also forgetting EFF's violence of the past should we remove the shutdown of July 2021 from the discussion.
2021 July was ANC vs ANC within itself.
In history of EFF protests have you heard anything about looting and violence?
The EFF has never looted shops pay attention Mr .
@@sibonisoerolmkhwanazi "EFF Deputy President Floyd Shivambu congratulated the party supporters for causing damage to various H&M stores[113] across South Africa due to a picture of a young black child wearing a green hoodie reading, "Coolest Monkey in the Jungle".[114][115][116][117][118][119] A Vodacom store in Polokwane was damaged and looted by EFF members following a presentation by Corruption Watch at the 2018 Vodacom Awards which included an image depicting EFF leaders Malema and Shivambu as "abusers of Democracy"."
History is recorded you should at least attempt to do your due diligence before making any claims.
Eff achieved their objective and state wasted a lot of tax payers money.
Who is Nhlanhla Lux? Why does it seem like he is above the law?
Zuma need to come back as president and complete he's term since the only way to remove a president is by the ballot and both thabo and Zuma was removed by step down.........double standard yoh
I hear the prof but i feel,next time u should get another prof,he seems he doesn’t understand the simple questions u ask,who is nhlanhla lux(what makes him special)and his answers they leave me wondering if he answered
Really it was a success. ANC has role models in NP (National Party) during apartheid look at the comment of helipad in Nkandla they said PW Botha had one. What they did with the announcement about security it was for the first time I had in my life I saw 1976 June 16, 1984 September 3 in the Vaal which shaked PW Botha and his Parliament because the following year the was state of emergency it was planned long before September because I knew about it in July people were given a benefit of doubt but with ANC and DA it's worse. Maybe by then DA was PFP(Progressive Federal Party) before it became DP and changed to DA we never saw this intimidation. That is why George Bizos said Marikana reminded him of 1960 which UN condemned. But ANC role models are NP. Ramaphosa might not leave now but Rome was not built in one day

Not sure electricity it's solved up until all ellegal connection it's solved especially in locations
So we do have Municipal police, haibo🥺🥺🥺😳
Malema is testing the waters to see if the people are angry to rise and cause revelation and anarchy. He was trying to repeat the Durban 2021 kind of violence. He was even telling his supporters to try and plan how stop trains and trucks. I am happy for what all South Africans did. They just enjoyed resting at home and took it as long weekend.
Minister statement meant other way around he thought it was serious only to find out not 😆
Mr Maleme was quick to outline the problems in the country, we all know the problems and have experienced them. It is easy to accomplish your objective using fear as your tactic and psychological torture, so getting this done would be easy, but the truth of the matter is the ANC is still in power. He also keeps including bringing up apartheid and racism towards white people, it is clear he does not like (white) people, and that I as a white person who had nothing to do with apartheid, what future do we have as white citizens in this beautiful country, so my question is, now that we see what the problems are, Please I pray tell us, what is now the solution you propose? Do you have the answers or even an idea of how to solve these issues, while still keeping a racist-free democracy?
Did Malema not hold hands with a white guy? He lives in a white guys flat. Even poses with white girls. So how is he racist? Did Hitler hold a Jews hand? Ayiko. You want to see what you want to see. And telling us how you know what the problems are... Do you sleep ten people in a rdp? I dont think so.
Am not a racist I like every human being but deep down in your heart you know exactly that theirs not such thing called democracy in south Africa we are not equal till we get what belong to our forefathers land and treat each other the same but I can't that theirs some white people really don't like this thing of black and white
@@madodantombela-xv8hh Agreed. Unfortunately most abelungus still have that hatred. After 30 years... Imagine. Why go into a pool and try and kill 2 kids because they are black? Mandela was far to busy trying to kiss abelungus. He should have laid down the law. Now abelungus think because Mandela kissed and forgave that they can still be racist.
Same thing as white people deep in their hearts dey dnt love black person , am working with whites on a daily bases u will see how dey treat black person I think u should ask urself what can white people do to change how dey see a black person cause surely we are not animals but human beings

Malema is our next President
Are u in Zimbabwe? If so u are right because your Malema cannot be a SA president. He wants to open borders for all foreign nationals to come to SA. Already SA has a problem with drugs. Have u seen the streets Philadephia. Its is the results of foreign nationals selling drugs to people.

So - because the "protest" did not escalate into violence and looting-it was a success?
I wonder how many businesses suffered major losses? Clearly ( which no media outlet seems to mention )- most businesses and schools were closed due to employees taking leave since today is a public holiday?
The majority that has no say in the economy can not worry about your business losing money. Catch a wake up.
the result of this protest will be seen in the poles, it's all political postering and I believe it to be a stale mate since the protest was mostly peaceful while still raising awareness of the problems that need to be addressed concerning electricity supply, employment opportunities and crime.
@Tylo -so the nation's attention was captured- now what?

Chestpains.
You are also a lost soul. The majority does not even earn a days income. Get real.
EFF has achieved NOTHING
The intelligence was wrong about the protest
Weak political analysts.
It was not a success. People went to work and businesses closed down not for the property to be destroyed
Hey Julius, you can call your protest march a success when Ramaphosa resigns.
Yesterday protest was not only about that. Load shedding that is a crisis in our country, unemployment rate, the repo rate is rising once again.
We can argue and disagree but the truth is yesterday protest was not about EFF but for all of us.
Ask yourself what will happen when ANC loss the election/power?
Are we all safe?
Will they accept defeat just like that?
If you look closely how they react and use Police and all forces to intimidation South Africans practicing their own right.
We are all not safe from these politicians be it EFF, ANC or DA
The only thing they have achieved is dividing all of us. Ask yourself why most white people were against yesterday Protest to me it felt like It was EFF vs ANC and Whites not about Us as South Africans.
We are not united and as long as we keep fighting against each other the politicians will continue to loot and destroy our Country
