With the presidential elections coming up a lot of political parties are now looking for strategies to win the upcoming elections. This is done by listening to what the majority of the people want and then implement it.
The EFF lead by Julius Malema has been criticised a lot by people for siding with foreigners more than its own people. They have however taken a huge turn as they have now embarked on mission to make sure that South African are employed in most work places. https://twitter.com/RamaboduObakeng/status/1483477993481773059?t=3QzwrLagiw5Gf-5KOcpO_w&s=19
Recently some EFF members visited The Ocean Basket restaurant in Menylyn. They were shocked to discover that out of 34 employees only 8 were South Africans. The rest were foreign nationals. this was a wake up call to them ad also to most South Africans that indeed some jobs that should be meant for the locals are occupied by the foreigners.
Apparently most people say restaurants claim to employ foreigners because they say that they agree to work on tips while most South Africans require a basic salary. It is quite sad that the economic situation of South Africa keeps on going down forcing people to take such drastic measure to make sure that moat South Africans find employment.
The EFF in turn gave an ultimatum to the restaurant management and said that they would be back at Ocean basket. They however proposed that they would like to see changes whereby the restaurant would be allowed to employ at least 9 foreign nationals while the rest would be South Africans.
A lot of South Africans were happy to see such an initiative from the party. They also however believed that the party had been lenient with the restaurant to allow them to employ even 9 foreign nationals. The good thing about all of this is the negotiations were done peacefully with utmost respect for human life. Peace should be maintained at all times.
