# EFF president Julius Malema says an EFF-led government would provide unemployed citizens and Sassa beneficiaries with free basic services. Addressing the party’s Ground Forces Forum in uMsunduzi, KwaZulu-Natal, Malema said unemployment is out of control and government was failing to meet people’s basic needs. He says Sassa beneficiaries should automatically qualify for support, including free electricity. Malema made the remarks amid intensified campaigns ahead of the local government elections:
