Injeje, EFF meet on ‘Indian dominance’

THE anti-indian lobby group, Injeje yamanguni, is to meet the EFF over the direction they will take in fighting what they call “Indian dominance” in Kwazulu-natal.

EFF leader Julius Malema caused a stir when, during his party’s fourth anniversary celebrations in Durban last week, he said some Indians in the province were ill-treating their black employees and were also monopolising the province’s economy.

In response, the leader of Injeje, Phumlani Mfeka, said Malema’s comments about Indians were true.

Mfeka said Indians were dominating the province’s economy and this had to stop.

He said his organisation was planning a mass demonstration when he appears in the Durban’s Equality Court on September 22 for calling Mahatma Gandhi a racist.

Mfeka, who has been in and out of court for his antiindian sentiments, said he would not retreat because Indians were ill-treating their African counterparts.

He said patience was running thin with the provincial government which“remained silent while black people were being treated badly”.

“Africans are still suffering at the hands of our Indian counterparts,” he said.

“Government is not intervening because some of them are in the pockets of Indian business people.

“From now on, we are going to expose them.”
