EFF might consider legalising drugs─── 16:55 Tue, 15 Apr 2014
Johannesburg - The EFF would consider the possibility of legalising dagga if it came to power after the May 7 general election.
Party leader Julius Malema said on social networking site Facebook today that the party has no hostile position towards the drug. He was responding to questions for an hour ahead of the May 7 general election.
Several controversial questions and remarks were put to Malema, including issues around homosexuality, electronic tolling, and his close relationship with former ANC Youth League leader Floyd Shivambu. Malema said if the Economic Freedom Fighters came to power after the elections, it would get rid of e-tolling.
On fighting crime, Malema said he would empower and retrain police officers to focus more on criminals rather than protests.
