This week we bring you not one, not two, but three snippets on the man who commands more headlines than anyone else - yes, even more than Joost - Julius Malema.
The ANCYL president’s been quite busy, reacting to death threats, driving around with a blue light on his car and canceling his campaign against Nedbank.
For more on Malema and his famous quips have a look at Max du Preez and Mandy Rossouw’s The World According to Julius Malema; and meanwhile here are the latest links:
Spokesman Zweli Mnisi said a threat analysis conducted by Crime Intelligence officers revealed that the ANC Youth League leader needed to be protected.
“He wrote us a letter saying his life was in danger. Our crime intelligence then investigated and sent recommendations to the Police Commissioner.
“Based on those findings, VIP protection was then decided on,” Mnisi said.
He could not be drawn to elaborate on the findings of the investigation and denied newspaper reports that Malema had received death threats.
ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema’s driver reportedly placed a blue light on their car’s roof after traffic officers signalled to him to pull over. They were doing 107km/h in a 60km/h zone, according to Beeld.
ANC Youth League President Julius Malema has been forced to back down from his threat of a boycott against Nedbank and admit that he had it all wrong.
The bank’s decision to withdraw its sponsorship of Athletics SA (ASA) had nothing to do with the Caster Semenya debacle and was made in July, a month before the controversy over the athlete broke in the wake of the world athletics championships in Berlin.
It followed nine months of talks between the bank and the ASA over the organisation’s performance in organising road running.
