Black People Politics : S. African president 'scared of whites': Malema

When I clicked the link below:


Nothing came up on "massacred mineworkers."

That link was included in your OP along with the statement. It would be the same as if you clicked on the "African National Congress" link in your OP - there would be nothing written in the article in that one either.

Got it, thanks ...

Striking miners gather on a hillside at the Lonmin mine near Marikana, South Africa, Aug. 15, 2012. The strike is part of a bitter turf war between rival trade unions, and even before Thursday's shooting, some ten people had been killed since workers downed tools last Friday.

New Namibia party linked to S.Africa firebrand Malema: official

Windhoek (AFP) - South Africa's radical Economic Freedom Fighters party, led by firebrand Julius Malema, has spawned a sister party in neighbouring Namibia, officials of the new group said Wednesday.

The Namibia Economic Freedom Fighters (NEFF) would be a "radical left", anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist movement, said businessman-turned-politician Epafras Mukwiilongo.

Mukwiilongo, who styles himself "commander in chief" of the NEFF in emulation of Malema's title in South Africa, said the new party would be registered soon and would compete in national elections in December.
