Big head’s T-shirts give people nightmares, claims Malema

The Economic Freedom Fighters held it’s provincial manifesto rally in Limpopo on Saturday and told people to asking for important things from political parties. In his address, EFF leader Julius Malema told people to stop being satisfied with only getting T-shirts from the ANC and ask for clean water, free education and jobs.

He further threw shade at former president Jacob Zuma and said his T-shirts gave people nightmares.

He said in Sepedi: “EFF is the future, stop loving T-shirts more that the future of your children. They’ve been giving you T-shirts from 1994 until today. You can’t eat a T-shirt, it can’t give you a job.

“You love useless things more than the future of your children. ‘He he we want T-shirts, if we don’t get them we won’t vote’. They gave you [Nelson] Mandela’s T-shirt in 1994, then [Thabo] Mbeki’s in 1999, and they gave you again in 2000 and whatever, then they gave you big head’s T-shirt, it even gives you nightmares.

“You’ve worn all the T-shirts. You must tell them that you don’t want T-shirts anymore and ask for clean water instead. When you want to speak they give you T-shirts and food parcels. You eat every five years, and then you vote for them again. When they win they forget about you.”

He said the EFF was the only party that would deliver free education and guarantee the safety of protesting students. However, students needed the support of their parents in voting for the EFF for that to happen.

“When you vote, think about students who are fighting for free education, and it’s only the EFF that will give them free education. University students vote for the EFF and they call if phephela. They want you to also vote for it so they can get their results and graduate. They can’t graduate without getting their results, and you’re busy voting for a party that doesn’t want to give them results.

“You vote for a government that kills students who protest for free education, it means you’re part of the people who are killing innocent souls because they kill them with your vote. Stop the killing of innocent people,” said the EFF leader.
