The new baby on the block
i was asking my friend that how many political parties
does she know, she told me that she know African National Congress (ANC) which
is the ruling party, Democratic Alliance (DA), Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP),
Congress Of the People (COPE) and the new baby in the block Economic Freedom
Fighters (EFF).
This has left
me thinking that out of the 15 parties, she only knows five. I wonder why the
other parties are not known. The reason is because they do not make use of the
public Relations strategies in their parties. Let’s look on the freedom
Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) is the yesterday party but it is already known
and everyone is talking about it.
The EFF has managed to market them well because they
took any chance they see in front of them and use it, they don’t only rely on
the word of mouth but they go out and do campaigns. On the 16 of August the
leader of EFF was at Marikaan for the anniversary of the deaths of the mineworkers
wearing his EFF beret to show people which party does he belong to. The crown
clapped, whistled and raised hands when he arrived to show how happy they are
to see him and knowing that there is a party that still care. http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Malema-arrives-in-Marikana-20130816
The party is already having thousands of followers and
the youth is talking about it, you can’t even believe that it was born last
month but already they have win many people because they know how to market
themselves. Is the EFF the future of SA?

ReplyDeletethank you
Deletetnx for those tips nelly I sure will use them when I open my own party
ReplyDeletelol good because they will help ou one day.
DeleteI personally think that is not the future of S.A, because they have already started having problems within their movement. One of their leader which is Kenny Kunene have already resign from the leadership.This shows that is a not the future party to our county.
ReplyDeletekenny resigned because of personal reasons, its got nothing to do with the party. the youth is the future of this country and almost every youth is talking about the EFF, chances are vry high that the EFF will rule this country one day.
DeleteE.F.F is the future of this country, they have a great leader in Malema cause he speaks his mind, he calls a spade a spade and he's not scared of anyone
ReplyDeletei agree with you because they youth want a person like that.
Deletei think the recent upspring of political parties is a positive outlook because for years in SA we have had a lack of variety in terms of political representation, the parties are narrow and somewhat similar in their manifestations lacking in difference in governing styles, and riddled in corruption as media has over the years proved to us the ordinary citizens, so i am happy when i see so many of them poping up
ReplyDeletetrue and they way the socal media is taking over from the tranditional media things ae becoming easy and easy everyday.
Deletemany political parties are not known you start hearing about them only during the voting time.malema may speak his mind but it always gets him into trouble,the dude just does know when to stop i think thats why his party is getting so much publicity
ReplyDeletethey getting so publicity because he is every where and they are helping where people need them the most
DeleteMost of the these parties are not there to help people but only to destroy us publicity is a good think but only if you are helping someone
ReplyDeletewhich party want to destory us if i may ask?
Deletemost of the political parties we have just wont make it to the top because people who open up political parties have one thing in mind to generate money for themselves. EFF IS THE NOT FUTURE
ReplyDeletei agree with you when you say other political parties dont make it because they are out for money but EFF seems like they got best interest of heart for the country.
DeleteEFF IS NOT THE FURURE
ReplyDeleteIf political parties do not market themselve they wont win people, to win people they must interact with their audience.
ReplyDeletetrue that
Deletemos def, even though some say the EFF leader is still young and no nothing about politic, i say viva! juju and his party viva!. just watch the space the space EFF is taking over. Viva the future rulers viva!
ReplyDeleteviva, this man is going places. people must watch the space as you said
Deletemmmh okay like i am still undecided about this party which erupted few months back but already mutlitude of followers. But what i really know is that eff is certainly not the future because like everything associated with julious malema turns out ugly but they marketing strategy is really good tp an extent that some other parties must take notes.
ReplyDeletelol, this guy got a good leadership skills. i dont see why the party wont be the future ruling party.
DeleteI think people are just ignorant....
ReplyDeletethey are ignorant in what? you think they dont see that the EFF is the future or that other parties dont use the PR strategies?
Deletewe all know that the most known party in SAis the ANC itself so i bealive that no southafrican will want to be ruled by a party that is not going anywhere,our future lies in the people that we belive will make change for us and our country
ReplyDeleteanc has fail to delieve to this country and bring charge but the EFF got a promising future. they are ready to take over the world and bring changes
DeleteEFF carried out their marketign campaigns quite well. Its really doing a really good job, it engaged well known personalities like Fana Mokoena and the sushi king. That aswell makes people to actually follow the party to other parties
ReplyDeletetrue the party know how to market themselves
DeleteCouldn't agree with you more Nelly many political parties do not use social media and other media platforms or PR strategies to strengthen or to gain more followers. even Agang has more followers compared to parties such as the UDM who have been around for more than 10yrs.
ReplyDeletevery true hope that they are learning from EFF
Deletepeople in south africa are afraid of change. EFF won't go far.That's just how I see it. What happened to COPE?
ReplyDeletelol it look like the EFF is going forward because the youth is behide it and the youth is the future of this country
DeleteWHICH EVER YOUTH THAT IS BEHIND EFF MUST START OPENING THEIR EYES AND LOOK AT THE REALITY PART OF THE FORMATION BEHIND THIS PARTY, I SERIOUSLY DO NOT THINK THAT ANYONE IN THE WORLD WOULD TAKE SOUTH AFRICA SERIOUS UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF THE TWO CLOWNS JULIUS MALEMA AND KENNY KUNENE, BY THE WAY WHO ARE THEY ACTUALLY TRYING TO FREE ECONOMICALLY BECAUSE IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THEY WILL FREE THEMSELVES AND LIVE A LAXURIOUS LIVE OUT OF YOUNG PEOPLE'S VOTES.
ReplyDeleteyou mean that they only care about money and firm. they have show what the leaders should do in times of needs. the EFF was there at marikaan to give them support which the ruling party fail to do.
Deleteit lies on DA
ReplyDeletewhat are you talking about MR Nyathi?
DeleteWell we all know that dominant people are the one who makes it to the top quicker so as for EFF well it's about that and of course the money too. So I don't trust the party.
ReplyDeleteif you dont trust the party it means you wont vote for it.
DeleteThe EFF is a good party but I sometimes worry about their policies and how they will affect our lives if they were to be given an platform to implement them into our socio- economic system.
ReplyDeletei agree with you but we wont know until we give them a chance
DeletePeople should learn to come out of their comfort zones and realise that there is a whole wide world out there and there are people willing and able to offer better and do better than what we are already used to. Take that step of faith.
ReplyDeletevery true
DeleteThank you for those tips, I think they can help a lot of people. I think many political parties dont make use of the social media to make themselves known to the public. Many of them fail because people dont kown anything about them.
ReplyDeletehope they will learn from EFF
DeleteI personally think that it is essential for all parties to market themselves to make us aware that they exist. Its true that most of us dont even know half of the parties who exist in our country. Better Marketing strategies will definately improve this.
ReplyDeletetrue
Deleteinformative and helpful indeed..parties should make themselves known to us in order to get essential support
ReplyDeletei believe that they are learning from EFF
