Julius Malema, the leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), has stirred controversy with his recent vow to dismiss Amapanyaza, the Gauteng Crime Prevention Wardens, once his party assumes control of the province. Speaking at the EFF’s 10th-anniversary celebration rally held at the FNB Stadium Malema accused Panyaza Lesufi also known as “panya panya,” of improper hiring practices.
Malema alleged that those employed under Panyaza Lesufi’s leadership were appointed not based on merit but rather due to their affiliation with the African National Congress (ANC). He claimed that these individuals were either ANC members or campaigners suggesting a partisan approach to employment within the Gauteng Crime Prevention Wardens.
The EFF leader’s strong stance on dismissing the wardens has sparked debates about the role of political patronage in public institutions and the importance of merit-based hiring practices. Some have expressed concerns that dismissing individuals based on political affiliations could lead to an erosion of institutional stability and efficiency.
The EFF has been growing in popularity over the past decade and Malema’s recent pronouncement adds to the party’s campaign promises as they vie for increased political influence in the region. As the political landscape evolves the fate of the Gauteng Crime Prevention Wardens and the principles governing their employment are set to be at the center of contentious debates in the upcoming elections.
