"No, stop it. Chris Hani was never a Gucci revolutionist."
@Lex101111 shared:
"Why are you people disrespecting Chris Hani, why don't you use Tony Yengeni for such things? Chris Hani hated thugs who steal from the people and drive Mercedes Benz. Toni Yengeni got into trouble for it and Julius gave a King a German car."

"President Malema": Mzansi reacts to #EFFvsAfriforum hate speech testimony
In more news about Malema, Briefly News previously reported that following Julius Malema's heated exchange with AfriForum during his High Court testimony, South Africans took to the internet in reaction.
Many social media users took to various online platforms to share their reactions to Malema's revelation that he was not afraid to die.
"I'm not afraid of dying. It beats me why I'm still alive as I died long ago. I'm [also] not scared of killing. A revolutionary is a walking killing machine. I will kill if ever I'm required to do so, especially if it is to defend my people," said Malema.
Briefly News reported previously on the bombshell dropped by Malema during his testimony over the hate speech case brought against the EFF by AfriForum.
