ANC Youth League President and man of letters, Julius Malema, says that his organisation would like some shares in mining company Anglo American, 60% to be precise. The predicated price of what would be a record take-over, the ANCYL predicts, would be about R0.00.
Malema made the announcement, to rapturous applause, at a dinner in Nelspruit on Friday by saying: “Share that delicious piece of cake. Don’t eat it all alone!”
Malema said that any political unrest in the country was due to unemployment and by nationalising the mines the problem would be solved. He has yet to decide on how he came to this logic, but we wait with bated breath for an answer.
He then made his most incisive remark of the evening: “If we don’t do it (nationalisation), we’ll always stay poor. The Oppenheimers don’t need to worry because we only want 60% of Anglo American’s money.”
Malema then nattered on about there being a new revolution and that people must now be “economic freedom fighters”. He also made a great suggestion about having babies to keep the whole revolution thing going. “Having babies is a revolutionary thing. You must reproduce!” he said
The thing about Julius Malema is that no matter how little seriousness you ascribe to what he says, it won’t make what he says any less serious.
