Malema claps back against Musk for white genocide accusation

The EFF celebrated a decade of existence this past weekend, and Malema sang the "kill the boer" chant during the celebrations.

@bennyjohnson, a YouTuber who shares conservative American news, tweeted about the video in which he slammed the EFF CIC for singing the song.

In response to the tweet, Elon Musk tagged President Cyril Ramaphosa. He then accused Juju of pushing for white genocide. He then questioned the President and asked why nothing had been done.

Malema did not waste time and hit back. He replied and said to Musk:

"O bolela masepa. [You're talking sh*t.]"

The Democratic Alliance joined the fray and announced they would be pressing charges against Malema. The Equality Court ruled last year that singing the song does not constitute hate speech.
