Elon Musk Condemns Julius Malema for Inciting Violence in South Africa
Since leaving South Africa as a young teen, Elon Musk has said very little about his country of birth. But in a surprising turn of events, the world’s richest man slammed EFF leader Julius Malema for inciting violence after a video of him singing “Kill The Boer” went viral.
The clip was recorded at the EFF’s 10th-anniversary celebrations at the FNB Stadium on Saturday, 29 July.

Outrage Over Malema’s Statement
Elon Musk joined countless others who have voiced their outrage at Malema’s brazen political and racially-charged statement. The DA’s John Steenhuisen revealed that the party would be filing charges against the EFF leader with the United Nations Human Rights Council. VF-Plus leader Pieter Groenewald tweeted a picture of him laying criminal charges against Malema at a local police station.
