Economic Freedom Fighter's leader Julius Malema has urged Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe to step down.

He was speaking at the party's headquarters in Braamfontein on Monday‚ following the EFF's 3rd plenum which was held in Kempton Park over the weekend.

The plenum's objective was to discuss and forge a way forward for the party's national plan of action for 2017 under the theme 'The year of the branch' as well as discuss strategic objectives.

Malema said, "We say this out of love. Not because we hate him. We celebrate Mugabe, we celebrate what he has done and we will continue his legacy, but grandpa it's enough now."
