The leader of the EFF, Julius Malema, entered into the heartland of Jacob Zuma and visited the Zulu King on his birthday.
Zulu king Goodwill Zwelithini celebrated his 69th birthday on 27 July 2017, and Malema went to visit him. In addition, he gave the king five live cattle as a gift.
They also met behind closed doors, after which Malema said he would work with traditional leaders if his party were to come into power.
In turn, Zwelithini asked the EFF to behave themselves in parliament and to show that they are not enemies of other political parties. “We accepted the king’s advice and have undertaken to exercise this advise,” Malema said.
Observers, however, are not optimistic that the EFF will behave in parliament, because then this would result in them loosing the necessary publicity.
