Addressing EFF delegates in December during the party's elective conference, Malema made it clear that anyone absent from the conference was no longer considered part of the party's leadership, and at the time Ndlozi was nowhere near the conference. He said:
All leaders of the EFF are here in front. There is no leader of the EFF who is not here in front. There is no leader of the EFF who is not here in Nasrec. If they are not here, they are not leaders of the EFF. You must never regard them as the leaders of the EFF.
