“Imagine you get addressed by [Rob] Hersov on Facebook like a small boy. ‘Eh, Herman. I’m very happy. I’m very happy. Gayton told me. Gayton just called me, you know. You’re doing a good job. Wonderful. Wonderful. You know. Herman.’ No White man can say that about me. A white man comes in the morning to record himself so he can feel good. To feel good, he talks about me like that because I took his money. I’ve not taken any White man’s money, that’s why no White man can speak about me like a small boy,” Malema declared.

Nota Baloyi took to his X account on Tuesday, 8 April and accused Malema of lying. Nota responded:

“Liar…”

Here are some of the comments:

@Swiiiiiiidad_7 explained:

“He never personally received any money in the form of being told what to do and what not to do from and by a white person, unless it was business investments. Why call him a liar if you can't understand the context of what he is saying, or rather, meaning?”

@grootboom_G responded:

“Just like you when you claimed to have produced ‘Ngud’ by Kwesta?”

@Mjmakhanya111 claimed:

“Johann Rupert admitted that he gave him money 💰, so why is he lying?”

@factonlymatter alleged:

“Just about last year, the WMC gave EFF money through the mining sector and Patrice Motsepe.”

@ViruzzM queried:

“Can you prove that he’s lying?”

@OurLandBack highlighted:

“But they have been explaining over and over again that Mazzotti settled their IEC debt. That doesn’t mean Malema took money from him.”
