In 1989, L'Ormarins won every major local wine competition under the direction of Dr Anton's son, Anthonij Rupert. Anthonij Rupert died in 2001, leaving his brother Johann to take over L'Ormarins." The EFF said his arrival in 1652 was the start of the country's problems, particularly concerning land rights. In 1714, Dutch Cape governor Simon van der Stel officially granted L'Ormarins to Roi. "We want our land back," said Tambo during a Newzroom Afrika interview. A marquee was erected with a makeshift stage for Malema to address supporters. In a televised interview ahead of the picket, EFF spokesperson Sinawo Tambo said the point of their picket was to show that Rupert was the "biggest benefactor of the colonial impact" and was a reminder of the "annexation and theft of land" dating back to the colonial era. Tambo said, as a result, Rupert was positioned as a "first citizen" in terms of land ownership and control of the economy. Other EFF advertisements said a similar march would be held near Rupert's properties in Mpumalanga. [In Pictures]: Fighters in Malelane in Mpumalanga ahead the EFF picket at Johann Rupert Farms.

To this day, this very property, like many other properties around the continent, is surrounded by a mass of black people who live in squalor.
