South African politician Julius Sello Malema is president of the African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL). Malema is a controversial figure who rose to prominence while supporting Jacob Zuma, the current ANC President.
Convicted of hate speech in March 2010, Malema is often in the news. He’s described by some as “South Africa’s future leader” and others as a “reckless populist with the potential to spark racial conflict and destabilize South Africa”.
Note – during a 2018 follow-up, it seems the link to Malema’s website JuliusMalema.com no longer exists or is for sale.
