Malema's 'a danger to the GNU and ANC'
Mail & Guardian
|May 02, 2025
The ANC secretary general says that it would not be a surprise if the EFF voted with the DA, should a motion of no confidence be brought against the president

The inclusion of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) in the government of national unity (GNU) would be dangerous and spell the demise of the ANC, its secretary general Fikile Mbalula says.
On Monday, EFF leader Julius Malema said his party would support a motion of no confidence in President Cyril Ramaphosa, if it were to be brought to parliament, should the ANC continue with what he called its reckless and arrogant approach to governance.
“Do you think Malema will stop his motion of no confidence if we bring him to the GNU? He’s not. He could actually be the worst, he could actually be one who could fast-track our demise,” Mbalula told a media briefing at ANC headquarters Luthuli House, in Johannesburg, on Wednesday.
“He’s too dangerous because he comes in many colours, he is not straight. When we deal with the Democratic Alliance, we deal with a clear thing, we deal with criminals that we see.”
