"They must be given shares in these township malls and every mall should have rent-free space set aside for spaza shops," the EFF leader said.
He made it clear that the EFF saw itself as the representative of the classes without property and that lawful reallocation of property was the only way to correct the systemic dispossession of land.
Malema told the audience that it was in their interest to support the EFF, which he classed as the only true opposition to ANC state looting, which would "kill the economy" that property owners needed in order for them to succeed.
"The problem with liberation organisations is that they have nothing more to add after liberation. After that, they are out of ideas and expect people to vote for them simply because they had liberated them, as we see with the ANC currently," said Malema.
He called on property owners to agree to have the state act as trustee of all land, to be allocated to people for good usage in a non-corrupt manner.
He listed the example of a farm close to his home in Seshego, which had been fallow for 20 years before it was invaded and shared with the owner.
The EFF leader ruled out working with the ANC in 2019, stating that the party would only join an opposition coalition if its terms of a state bank, nationalisation, expropriation of land and free education were met.
Failing that, the EFF would give the opposition its support to at least stop the current ANC kleptocracy, said Malema. - TimesLIVE
