Meet EFF Leader Julius Malema who has condemned the nationwide protest planned for 30 June. He says that, while he understands the concerns of the organisations involved in the protests, there are legal channels available to resolve the immigration issue.
Most of us are not going through a lot.
We just need money. 😭💔Like me right now, there’s nothing wrong with me.
The moment I see money, I’ll be perfectly fine.
Pregnancy isn’t 50/50
Childbirth isn’t 50/50
Breastfeeding isn’t 50/50
Postpartum isn’t 50/50
Physical body changes isn’t 50/50
Why should the bills be 50/50 when a woman has already paid in ways a man never could???
“Duduzile has never said anything political in front of me, she only came to a meeting wearing a TRY ME BOYS T-shirt celebrating her boyfriend. Otherwise she add no value politically, President Zuma used to chase her away whenever I came to Nkandla to give us space to talk.” - @FloydShivambu
Let me educate you not with anger, but with truth. You assume South Africans lack exposure. You assume we believe other African countries are poor and undeveloped. That is not the case. We know the reality. We know Nigeria has oil. We know Ghana has gold. We know Kenya has tech. We know Botswana has diamonds. We know Zambia has copper. We know Zimbabwe has platinum and lithium. We know the DRC sits on $24 trillion in minerals. We know Africa is rich.
But here is what you do not understand, wealth beneath the ground does not translate to prosperity above it. You can have all the minerals in the world but if your leaders steal, your constitutions hostile towards humans rights, if your institutions are corrupt, if your people are divided by tribe, if your healthcare collapses, if your schools crumble, if your youth flee then you are poor. Not in resources. In governance. In accountability. In dignity.
We do not look down on Africa. We look at the mirror Africa refuses to face. We see our own flaws corruption, unemployment, crime and we fight them. We protest. We vote. We demand better. That is what makes us different. We do not run. We stay. We build. We hold our leaders accountable, even when it hurts.
You say we lack exposure. But we see you. We see your leaders flying overseas to get treated, some in our country to get medical treatment, while your children starve. We see your ports exporting raw minerals while your people have no jobs. We are not blind. We are not ignorant. We are honest.
The difference between South Africa and many other African countries is not wealth. It is the willingness to confront failure. We own ours. You run from yours. That is not a lack of exposure. That is a lack of accountability. And until you fix that, no mineral, no resource, no tweet will save you. Go home. Fix your house. Then talk to us about exposure.
The youth of 76 took to the streets without alcohol and Hookah pipes!
The youth of today faces a new struggle, drug addiction and alcohol abuse. I’m deeply disappointed in @Julius_S_Malema for allowing this. If anything, this should have been a substance free safe space where sober choices are encouraged.
I pushed not just 1 but 3 babies overnight, 3kg, 3.5kg and 4kg, all boys don't be stingy with your congratulations 💃💃💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿
