The EFF criticised the University of Johannesburg for denying
the group access to its Doornfontein campus on Friday.
"UJ must be ashamed that it has joined the long queue of
manipulated public institutions used to settle political scores
by the ruling party," spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi said in a
statement.
"We are not moved. If anything the events of the University of
Johannesburg, like others earlier this week in the Vaal and
other areas across the country, only serve as proof that ZANC
[Zuma-African National Congress] is intimidated andnow they
resort to cheap tricks of intimidation, manipulation and street
gossip," Ndlozi said.
Earlier in the day, EFF supporters ripped up ANC T-shirts after
they were barred from the campus, where leader Julius Malema
planned to speak to students.
University spokesperson Herman Esterhuizen said theEFF did not
follow the proper procedures to obtainapproval for the meeting.
"There was not an official application submitted to
theuniversity for approval in due time," he said.
Ndlozi disputed this, saying permission for the event had been
granted.
Groups of ANC supporters inblack T-shirts and EFF supporters in
red berets sang and danced in supportof their respective
organisations. EFF supporters also took ANC T-shirts and drove
over them with their cars.
EFF member Kenny Kunene arrived at the university but there was
no sign of Malema.
