EFF leader Julius Malema is known for controversial statements, often targeting South African’s white minority and prompting several legal complaints.
JOHANNESBURG- An American NGO defending journalists targeted South African radical leftist opposition leader Julius Malema on Saturday after he tweeted the personal phone number of a reporter who has since received a flood of threats.
The statement came after Malema tweeted Brown’s telephone number, also calling her a “mole” for the ruling African National Congress party. South Africans vote in a general election in May, with the ruling ANC party widely expected to conserve its absolute majority.
