@MDNnewss posted a video in which Morolong responded to the taunts Malema threw at him. Malema, in a podcast interview, called him a certified alcoholic. He also claimed he defeated Morolong when they were contesting the presidency of the Congress of South African Students (COSAS).

Morolong said a voter told him not to wrestle with pigs. He blasted Malema for not responding to him in Parliament. He denied that he contested the COSAS presidency with Malema. He said he had overwhelming support as a presidential candidate. However, allegations that he raped a woman were fabricated. As a result, the conference was postponed. He said Malema was elected in a subsequent conference. He further challenged Malema to a drug test to see who between him and Malema was an actual junkie.
