Marget Sello, an 82-year-old resident of Soweto, has expressed her unwavering support for the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and its leader, Julius Malema. Sello believes that the party’s realistic promises offer hope for a better future for the people of South Africa.
Since its inception, Sello has been a staunch supporter of the EFF. She firmly believes that the party has the potential to bring about the much-needed change in the country.
Sello states, “I love the EFF and I will pray for those things to come true so we can get out of this poverty and the troubles we are in. We are up and down, fighting here and there, but nothing is changing. The EFF has a vision.”

According to Sello, Malema’s promises to uplift those living in poverty-stricken conditions demonstrate his understanding of the issues that need to be addressed to improve the lives of poor South Africans.
She explains, “We are struggling every single day. If it is not electricity, then it is water. If it is not that, then it is providing for families and children. Our children are sitting at home with qualifications but with no jobs.
“After working hard, they still cannot escape this life of poverty. We are tired and we want change.”
Sello expresses her frustration with the current government, stating that it has failed to bring about the necessary changes. She emphasizes, “The current government has done nothing for us or to change things. We are tired of struggling and hearing them say they will change things, but nothing is happening.”
For Sello, all she wants is a better life for her family. If that means a change in government, she is willing to support the EFF. She asserts, “There has been democracy in this country for the past 30 years now, but there’s not much we can show for it.
“But I have hope that the EFF will change that. Our children will be educated and find jobs, and we, as old people, won’t struggle the way we do just to receive our pension grants. The EFF cares about us.
“You hear them in the things they say and the way they assure us. We will continue to support them. They hear our problems and they want to fix things. They must be given a chance. I will not stop voting for the EFF.”
