Julius Malema has a babysitter! That’s right, JuJu has been paired up with a babysitter to make sure he doesn’t bring the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) into disgrace.

Commissar “Dad” Mpho Ramakatsa, a former Umkhonto we Sizwe and ANC member, has been appointed to keep the militant party in check.

Malema said:

He is a kind of father to us. Anyone who is going to do something on their own, he will call that person to order, including commander in chief [Malema]

On Thursday, the Independent Electoral Commission confirmed that they recognize the EFF as an official political party.  The Freedom Front Plus (FF+) made a formal complaint stating:

The EFF propagates the nationalisation of land, mines, banks and other assets without compensation, and, in particular, on a racial basis. It is unconstitutional

Malema used to be the leader of the ANC Youth League. He was suspended from the party for hate speech and encouraging racial dissonance.

Western Cape co-ordinator Gcobani Ndzongana said that the DA will not win the next election, adding:

We don’t even want to be a strong opposition … we want to take over the Western Cape next year. And we can see … the response from the people

He said that people will do anything to belittle their complain:

You must not believe it tomorrow when you wake up and hear it from the news that we are going to eat white people, that is never going to happen. We are not going to do that.
