In a deeply emotional ceremony at Cecil Emmett Hall in Vryheid, KwaZulu-Natal, family, friends, and party leaders gathered to pay their respects to seven of the ten EFF members tragically lost in last week’s devastating bus crash.
As obituaries were read aloud, the room was filled with tears and heartfelt memories, painting vivid portraits of the fallen as brave, loyal revolutionaries who dedicated their lives to the struggle for economic freedom and social justice.
The ceremony was not just a farewell, but a powerful reminder of the sacrifice and commitment these young fighters embodied. Party leaders, including EFF president Julius Malema, joined mourners in honouring their legacy, vowing to continue the fight they passionately believed in.
The mass funeral served as both a moment of mourning and a celebration of lives cut short—leaving a lasting imprint on the party and the communities they served.
