This past weekend in South Africa was dominated by high-stakes political developments, particularly surrounding the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), the South African Communist Party (SACP), and the Umkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party. The EFF's National People's Assembly (NPA) in Soweto witnessed Julius Malema’s unopposed re-election as the party's president for a third consecutive term. Over 2,000 delegates gathered at the Nasrec Expo Centre to confirm his leadership, with no challenger stepping forward after Malema was nominated by a delegate from the Northern Cape. This victory underscored Malema’s continued dominance in the party. Lerato Mbele was in conversation with Jackie Shandu, political analyst.
