The EFF has approached their legal team to demand that Jacques Pauw's latest book, Our Poisoned Land be removed from the shelves.
NB publishers said they received an urgent letter of demand on Monday from Julius Malema, Floyd Shivambu and Mbuyiseni Ndlozi's lawyers calling the content of the book unverified, untrue and defamatory allegations against them.
Pauw's latest book is a sequel to the bestselling The President's Keepers, in which Jacob Zuma's darkest secrets were exposed.
NB publishers say Our Poisoned Land is as riveting and explosive.
The book goes into detail about the controversial relationship between Malema and self-confessed tobacco smuggler Adriano Mazzotti.
NB Publishers said they stand by Pauw and his book which was lawfully researched and published.
