@Gistwhere
Julius Malema got jokes for days 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Only_Botake;
😂😂😂😂😂 sad part is that most people are going to believe these lies. Desperation of votes will humble you 🤞🏼
@BedworthTimes;
Julius is loved and the EFF has potential, but eii man knows how to fumble 🤣😂
@Patricia_Bantom;
I just wonder why Julius Malema always messes up good things. Fighters worked hard to mobilize people to come and listen to him, and he thanked them by saying something stupid to decampain the EFF. Hard work down the drain.
@NatalyaTshego
What I like about him is he always proof that voting for him will be a biggest regret!!!
What a shame
