Abathembu King urges his people to vote EFF on November 1
AbaThembu King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo on Sunday urged his nation to vote EFF on November 1 so they can “teach the ANC a lesson”.
Dalindyebo was speaking at his private residence in Nkululekweni, Mthatha, after a brief meeting with the EFF commander, Julius Malema.
Malema, accompanied by party MP Mbuyiseni Ndlozi and provincial chair Yazini Tetyana, gave Dalindyebo cattle and revealed they would donate a car to him next week.
“He has also tendered a decent vehicle for the royal family, which we are very grateful for.
“He is not yet in [government] leadership, but he is doing what the ruling government should be doing and we say to him, may his party continue to grow.
“He has our full support. We urge all the Thembus to vote for the EFF to teach the ANC a lesson, and show them what they should be doing that they are not doing.
“In two weeks’ time the CIC will deliver an ML [Mercedes-Benz ML SUV], a car fit for a king, unlike those who do not respect kings and give us X3s and X4s [BMWs] that get stuck in the mud on rainy days.”
Malema, who visited Mthatha and Dutywa on Sunday, is set to visit Mdantsane and Gqeberha on Monday.
