It seems the man who blew the whistle on alleged EFF misuse of funds fears Juju is after him. Not the kind of guy you want to make enemies with, right?
Julius Malema used his opportunity to address white farmers in the Western Cape to impart some advice about their need to chillax. It went down better than you might think.
The finger-pointing regarding the xenophobic attacks extended into parliament when Julius took his opportunity to lay into JZ and his family.
It seems the EFF land redistribution process in Ballito is mutually beneficial, as those wanting to claim land had to first fill out EFF membership forms.
It seems someone didn’t take their chill pill before hosting the show ‘SABC Newsroom’. Watch Eben Jansen and an EFF spokesperson get in a rather heated debate.
You can take our freedom, but you will never take….our statues. People are going to extreme measures to protect certain monuments these days.
Following land occupation around Cape Town the EFF have come out and made some interesting claims. Is it time for new neighbours, Camps Bay and Bishopscourt?
Oh my, The Statue Issue continues, this time moving all the way to the capital, Pretoria. Sorry, Tshwane. And goodbye relaxing Easter weekend vibes.
The ANC Youth League have set their sights on one of Pretoria’s statues now and they have some rather prominent voices behind them.
It must be awful running this country and being held accountable for every decision you make – which is why Jacob daydreamed out loud yesterday about what he would change were he a dictator.
So where do South African political parties acquire all of their funding from then? It seems the EFF may be getting some help from a rather unlikely source.
Julius Malema took to the microphone Saturday and gave a rousing speech to those gathered complete with a call to arms. Those statues are in for some tough times.
Just when everyone had forgotten about the ongoing tax case with Julius Malema the plot takes another twist. It’s not looking so rosy for the beret-wearing leader.
Well it only took days, months and years but eventually South Africa (and the EFF) got their chance to ask JZ the question that has been uttered, chanted and screamed from rooftops around the country.
So what should we expect this time around then? Will we see absolute chaos or have parliament learnt their lesson from the debacle that was SONA? Only time will tell.
Inside the EFF’s bank accounts. Threat against Mall of America. Proteas fined. Alonso airlifted to hospital. Chelsea racist is ex-cop. Bangledesh ferry kills 39. UK parliament gets Ghandi statue.
So you started off with good intentions of paying attention for the entirety of yesterday’s address by Jacob Zuma, then your mind drifted. What did you miss? The Mail and Guardian have made it easy for us.
Cellphone jamming issue goes to high court. Egypt retaliates for Christian slaughter. Mbeki’s Nkandla remarks were a ‘distortion.’ Load-shedding’s incredible losses. DSK prostitutes drop suit. New US drone laws. Riri and Leo back in the mix.
The impartial white-shirted security forces who were responsible for the ejection of EFF members at Thursday’s SONA may not been so impartial after all. Shock, horror.
What a ruckus the SONA was. You have to laugh at it to keep your sanity. That or you’re going to drown yourself in a bathtub with a bottle of vodka and your ex’s leftover oxycontin.
And the name-calling train rolls on, gathering steam with each day as our politicians take to name-calling, mud-slinging and behaving with a distinct lack of class.
So who was right and who was wrong? We ain’t legal experts here but let’s try a bit of the old nitty-gritty and see where it gets us.
Aah, The SONA. What a great movie. It was like it was scripted. Looks like they should have taken Malema’s threats a little more seriously.
Anyone who watched the State of the Nation address on TV would have been aware that there was a LOT of action they ‘chose’ not to air. Like this video of the EFF being thrown out.
Pay attention folks because it is getting all kinds of messy before tonight’s State of the Nation address. Fights, police threats, controversy and drama…all essential viewing.
Who would have thought Julius Malema was an angry teenager right? Enjoy this footage of him losing his rag back in 2001.
Jacob Zuma dropped a bombshell Sunday when he claimed he had never been nervous in his life before. Roll up your sleeves Julius, there is work to be done.
Be careful what you promise, because one day somewhere down the line it might come back to bite you on the ass. It seems some people have failed to stick to their word.
When you are under the public spotlight, and you open yourself up to the wrath of the Twitterati, it will never end well. The Presidency of South Africa has been finding this out the hard way.
EFF Clock Ticks For Zuma’s ‘Day Of Accountability’. Bobbi Kristina Brown ‘Fighting For Her Life’. Second British Health Worker Tested For Ebola In London.
