JOHANNESBURG - The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) has declared 2025 as a year of picket lines.

The party says its members will be at the forefront of all service delivery and social injustice causes.

The EFF is currently holding a plenum in Limpopo, which serves as a strategy session of how it will implement the resolutions taken from its recent third national people’s assembly.

The EFF's central command team, members of Parliament, provincial legislature and MMCs serving in multiple municipalities are attending the plenum. 

EFF leader Julius Malema said this group was at the coalface of implementing the party’s resolutions. 

"The picket lines, commissars and fighters, refers to where we will be operating on a daily basis as the advanced detachment of the working class. As a people's organisation we must have a battlefield and that battlefield will not be in the offices or in never-ending meetings."

Addressing all EFF members, Malema said that they did not need to be deployed in government to effect social change.
