EFF fires back at Zanu-PF: Mugabe can no longer hold a pen

The EFF has not taken lightly Zanu-PF's response that it's leader was a 'little, irrelevant man.'


Gone are the days when the EFF once revered Mugabe and spoke highly of him, admiring his dictatorship for land repatriation.

Now, the EFF sings another tune and has spoken out against the leader who has ruled Zimbabwe for 37 years. After Malema called on Mugabe to step down, Psychology Maziwisa, Zanu-PF spokesperson said his comments were irrelevant.

EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi says Zanu-PF “must also ask themselves “what is revolutionary” and being led by a leader “who sleeps all the time in meetings‚ can no longer even hold a pen or write half a page.”

“This is because there is actually no youth in the ZANU-PF Youth; what you find are middle age men and women‚ half of which are suffering from a mid-life crises. They should be ashamed of themselves for holding the future from being born in Zimbabwe.”

“He is the bastion of the reactionary phenomenon of ‘lead to the death’ that has crippled the image and praxis of post-colonial Africa.

“President Mugabe is not only the contemporary engine of personality cult‚ but he is protected by a group of cowards around him who hypocritically defend him everyday‚ whilst harbouring ambitions to lead soon.”
