NATIONAL NEWS - In a tweet on Tuesday morning, ANC national executive committee member Tony Yengeni apparently revealed that the ANC caucus has been instructed to support the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) after they put forward a motion in parliament on the expropriation of land without compensation for equal redistribution.
Yengeni said this was because the policy had been adopted by the ruling party at its elective conference in December. He declared that the DA and “white monopoly capital” were in “big big trouble”.
The EFF is also feeling very confident about its motion, declaring that today would be the day they expropriate the land.
During his state of the nation address, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the policy would be implemented without compromising the country’s food security.
During the Sona debate, EFF commander-in-chief (CiC) Julius Malema warned the Democratic Alliance (DA) that its stance on the policy would lead to the two organisations being opposed, which would negatively affect the coalitions formed by the two parties in some metros.
Malema had also said the president was “bluffing” about the implementation of the policy.
