The EFF has declared that none of its members of parliament would take part in President Cyril Ramaphosa’s 2024 State of the Nation Address following the Western Cape High Court ruling on Thursday morning.
The Western Cape High Court’s denial of the party’s request to revoke the suspension of six of its Members of Parliament, including EFF leader Julius Malema
In a statement, released minutes ago, the party said: “All EFF members of Parliament will not participate in the 2024 SONA activities and programmes, as there are undemocratic and unconstitutional and the so-called State of the Nation Address in 2024 is an extended caucus of the ANC.
“Partial participation in the SONA activities and programme would imply that some of our members agree with the unlawful, undemocratic, and unconstitutional decisions of Parliament to forbid and banish elected members of Parliament. We will, therefore, not attend or participate in the ANC’s extended Parliamentary caucus
