THE LEADER OF NFP, Mr. Ivan Barnes, has left the EFF leader, Mr. Julius Malema, unsaid, accusing him of protecting illegal immigrants.
Barnes called Malema a madman who went to protect people in this country illegally.
He said this while welcoming members who joined the party in Thukela district.
Malema has recently fallen out of favor with the people who are leading the anti-immigrant protests that have spread throughout the country.
The protests started in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, then moved to the Eastern Cape.
Last week, these protests entered the Gauteng province, the city that is the center of the country’s economy, Johannesburg, and the country’s capital, Pretoria.
Malema said these protests took place in states where black people were killing each other during apartheid.
He said this while speaking at a dinner organized by the non-profit organization Collen Mashawana Foundation.
Malema said that the leaders of the protests do not know anything, they know how to drink charms and torches.
Malema said that he does not care if the people who are conducting these protests vote for the EFF.
“I don’t care about their votes, MKP can take them if they want their votes. I don’t want to be voted for by people who want me to hate the people here in Africa.”
Barnes urged people to ignore Malema.
Barnes said he also supports the campaign to deport illegal immigrants.
“The one who is sick with a headache who says that they eat charms and weapons, if they do it in their area, let them go to their place. We in KwaZulu say that each person should go back to their place. Those in Mthaniya say that each person should go back to their place. If you are Muslim, go back to you and other Muslims in Somalia. If you are from Nigeria, go to you in Nigeria. If you are from Zimbabwe, go to you in Zimbabwe. Aren’t you ashamed that South Africa has been suffering because of you? We are tired.”
Barnes said that the NFP would also join the campaign to deport immigrants and urged the leaders of the protests, Ngizwe Mchunu and Nkosikhona “Phakel’uthakathi” Ndabandaba to invite them to the campaign.
Barnes is talking like this about Malema and the groups planning to cooperate with the MKP in KwaZulu-Natal in overthrowing the provincial government.
MKP is leading the campaign to dislodge the coalition government led by the IFP, the NFP who are the incumbents in the KwaZulu-Natal Legislative Assembly.
If the MKP’s plot to overthrow the provincial government succeeds, it could mean that it will cooperate with groups that have different views on the issue of people in the country illegally.
