Part of the invitation letter signed by one Matsepo Khumalo from EFF leader Julius Malema’s office read: “The Economic Freedom Fighters invites you to join us and the masses of our supporters as we celebrate the launch of the 2016 Local Government Elections Manifesto revolutionary economic emancipation movement.”
