EFF supporters have gathered in East London for Julius Malema’s pre-sentencing hearing on Friday.
This after his October 2025 conviction for firing a gun at the party’s 2018 rally, with supporters showing solidarity outside the court for the upcoming sentencing that could impact his political future.
SABC News reporter Abongile Jantjies is standing by to give us the latest.

They will make the country UNGOVERNABLE, since they look ungovernable themselves, what would you expect from NYAOPE MAPHARAS, that will be bought with the same, so that they never think about the CONSEQUENCES, just like how it happened with the 2021, I WILL DIE FOR Zuma UNREST! Minister of FF Plus for ACTING PRESIDENT of South Africa, since our president is still SHOCKED and YELLOW OVERALLS for political criminals, posing as leaders and get them HOSTED by the minister in his INSTITUTION, so that they can come out REHABILITATED!
My wish list of INDEPENDENT candidates for next PRESIDENT of South Africa and MAYORAL candidates;
Prince Mashele, Dion George (ex DA), Professor Lesiba Teffo, Advocate Ike Khumalo.
Additional list for MAYORAL candidates;
The BEAUTY and BRAINS, Jacinta Ngobese Zuma and many more!

The downfall of the King of Makwerekwere is at hand! And if his kwerekwere supporters want to start a fight to try and save him, we will finally have an excuse to forcibly remove them from our country!
Please, please, give us an excuse to moer you! We're begging!
Its there land to loot so what
Zuma was finally released on medical parole here I'm talking about former State President with a huge following in KwaZulu Natal province so don't tell us about the small fish Malema
That statement is an act of terrorism, and they all should be arrested. Nobody has the right to make a statement like that. They ignite hate and racism. Politicians are not above the law!
What has he done ? Just because he fired shots in the air and nobody was killed, Are you kidding me ? Jail him and see trouble.
South African children are without schools and the EFF is quite.
I hungry is their a farmhouse breakfast
Why have they not started to let the games begin to shoot to kill
Nonsensical how can a sane person defend someone like Malema just now our children are struggling to be placed in schools because of Malema s illegal immigrants friends let the court sentence him to 7 years imprisonment
We will died for malema we are coming with guns
😂😂😂they must try….they have ruined the country enough….there's no south African from this soil that is still going to put up with this 💩much longer🤞💯
Malema must face the wrath of the law,no one is above the law.
The mayor of Knysna is next. I hate guns.
Leave Mr president alone
I'm a Tanzanian but I love malema
