Speaking at a media briefing at his party headquarters, the EFF’s CIC Julius Malema described the South African Defence Force deployed recently in the DRC as ill-trained and said its members can’t even look after a bunch of cabbages.
Malema said the SANDF should come back with immediate effect and be better trained, better equipped and better funded before they are sent out to fight rebels in that country.
“We support the deployment of the army, but currently, we don’t have the army. Our army can’t look after cabbages .. we just don’t have the army,” he said while accusing the ANC of collapsing the SANDF. “The army has collapsed under the control of (ANC)”.
Malema questioned how criminals were able to get into the country with AK-47 with ease”.
Malema’s utterances come after two South African soldiers were killed and three were wounded in a mortar strike
