Economic Freedom Fighters ( EFF) leader Julius Malema has instructed his party’s lawyers to attach former President Jacob Zuma’s Nkandla home over the money he owes the EFF.
Malema says that Zuma used the money to pay lawyers in several of his legal challenges.
His statement comes after several members of the party, including his former deputy Floyd Shivambu defected to Zuma’s uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party.
Malema addressed EFF members who marched to the Constitutional Court in Johannesburg yesterday.
He says, “Fighters, all the cases we won against Jacob Zuma, he never paid the legal fees. Zuma is owing us the legal fees. We’ve got an order that he must pay us our money because we’re defeating him in court. Now he has not complied with that order of paying our money. We just instructed our lawyer to go and attach a gun so that the man pays back our money.”
