EFF set to form structures for women and youth.

The EFF plans to organise women's and youth commands, dedicated to fighting for economic freedom in the face of the ANC's under-performing leagues.

With the 2016 elections around the corner, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) is planning to launch powerful women and youth structures to fill the gap left by the ANC’s ailing leagues.

The party is currently holding its inaugural conference in Mangaung and has set itself an ambitious target to reach a membership of one-million before the 2016 elections. Its current membership stands at 527 000.

Newly-elected EFF general secretary Godrich Gardee said in an interview on Monday that the party would put together a strong team to deal with challenges facing women and the youth.
