Watch: Nandi Madida interviews EFF leader Julius Malema on The Motherhood Network

EFF leader Julius Malema said that pensions should be raised to at least R4,500 per month and that young women should receive higher social grant payments.

He added that all social grant beneficiaries should receive free water and electricity, and that the government should pay an allowance to all unemployed graduates.

Malema shared these views during a discussion with Nandi Madida on The Motherhood Network podcast.

The EFF leader argued that higher social grants and free water and electricity will prevent many social ills in South Africa.

One of these social ills, he said, was that young women sleep with old men, called sugar daddies, because they need money.

The government must be the sugar daddy for these young women.
