EFF leader Julius Malema criticizes Elon Musk for labeling him an international criminal after Musk retweeted a video of Malema calling for an end to whiteness. The EFF defends Malema, stating that they will not be intimidated in their pursuit of racial equality.
The president of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) president Julius Malema vehemently condemned billionaire Elon Musk for labeling him an international criminal. The incident stemmed from Musk's retweet of a video featuring Malema's call to end whiteness. Malema's remarks, made in the context of a broader discussion on racial equality, sparked outrage among some, with Musk taking a particularly strong stance.
The EFF, Malema's political party, swiftly defended its leader, asserting that they would not be intimidated or silenced in their pursuit of social justice. The party stated that it remained committed to confronting imperialism and that Malema's call for racial equality should not be misconstrued as a threat.The EFF emphasized that Malema's stance reflects the party's unwavering dedication to fighting for racial equality and that they will not be deterred by Musk's labeling. They further criticized Musk for his position, highlighting his vast wealth and influence and questioning his right to make such pronouncements. Meanwhile, the Democratic Alliance, a South African political party, weighed in on the debate, with its Federal Chair Helen Zille expressing her agreement with Malema's call for the South African National Defence Force to be reformed.Adding to the complexity of the situation, Malema's relationship with former EFF MP Dr Mbuyiseni Ndlozi came under scrutiny after Ndlozi's notable absence from the EFF's third elective conference. Malema stated that he was unaware of the reasons behind Ndlozi's absence and denied any responsibility for keeping track of him. This statement fueled accusations from South Africans who alleged that Malema was mistreating Ndlozi.
