Burn Down ANC Offices – Malema

The Latest outrage by Julius Malema leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) is dangerous. Malema is irresponsible and calling for communities to take action against the ruling African National Congress (ANC) is warmongering. Malema called for communities to stop burning public property, such as schools and instead vent their anger by burning down ANC offices.

Malama has once again shown the world that he is immature and lacks the temperament to lead with wisdom. The recent violence in the Vuwani district where 20 schools were burnt by protesters leads to Malema calling for another tactical response of anarchy.

Inciting violence and calling for mobs to create a volatile situation within the country is wrong. Malema, who is a leader of a political party, should not allow such aggression to flow. It is now obvious that Malema does not have leadership qualities, and people should realize that burning down a country will not solve problems.

While Malema does have an outspoken and abrupt mannerism, the carelessness and serious discourse of violence is damaging. Ahead of the local government elections, such nasty talk is a course of turning South Africa into an unsafe place of intimidation and instability.

Malema should focus on peace and prosperity for the citizens, and not act in a reckless manner. As a parliamentarian, Malema has again given the public another reason to disrupt any peaceful negotiations in the unstable situation in Vuwani. Burning down schools or universities are wrong and should not be allowed. Calling for the ongoing rage to continue and burn down more buildings is fanning the flames of violence. The violence that will not be resolved until there is nothing left.
The cost of damage to schools and universities can amount to millions and in the meantime, the education system fails. Learners are displaced, and the quality of education has declined to a terrible state is now further ruined.

Malema has been on the road of destruction for a long time and threats are nothing new. The recent threat to remove the ANC government “through the barrel of a gun” was reckless. Talking of violently occupying land and threatening banks with mass action, spell disaster for Malema.

Malema has experience of enticing crowds into a disruptive state and continues to display immature behavior. Political violence and bloodshed are not going to stabilize South Africa and leaders like Malema should advocate peace. Malema has a platform and is embarking on a dangerous mission by encouraging violence. Malema appeals to the poor and promises action that will not be delivered. The ANC failed the poor people and the EFF under the leadership of Malema will not improve the situation. It would take years of honest leadership to rectify the problems of the last 21 years.

It should be the leaders who fuse into improving the lives of all citizens, not agitating people to resort to violent actions. Destruction of property is costly and can Malema replace the millions of rands of damage when South Africa has no money.
