Kenyan youth have ignited a powerful wave of inspiration across the African continent, South Africa’s Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party has said. EFF, founded by former African National Congress Youth League President Julius Malema, urged Kenya youth to remain steadfast and resilient until their legitimate demands are fully met.

EFF said South African Gen-Z must draw strength from the example set by their Kenyan counterparts and realise that they are in the midst of a battle.

It said President Cyril Ramaphosa, instead of addressing the genuine concerns raised on the youth during debates on his parliamentary address, dismissed the EFF as rude, rowdy, and disrespectful.

“He failed to address any of the crucial issues our young MPs brought to light,” the party said.
