Malema, according to the Sowetan, led students at the University of Johannesburg in a song saying: "Shoot the boere [farmers], they are rapists."

He told students that former president Nelson Mandela had convinced black people to forgive, but they should never forget what was done to them.

Hate-speech complaint
Freedom Front Plus leader and Deputy Agriculture Minister Pieter Mulder will on Wednesday lodge a hate-speech complaint against Malema at the Brooklyn police station in Pretoria.

Mulder said the use of the slogan was a contravention of section 16 of the Constitution.

.
This on the Heels of Western Cape Premier Helen Zille wanting to sue Julius Malema after the ANC Youth League president accused the DA leader of "suffering from Satanism".
.
Malema made the comment during a rally at the University of Johannesburg on Tuesday. He also claimed that Zille was responsible for the demolition of churches in Khayelitsha.
.
Seems Julius is becoming a real loose cannon and somewhat of an embarrassment to the ANC however the racial connotations are increasingly more worrying in essence it's all hate speech. Seems Africa can't get rid of of it's budding Mugabe's and junior Dictators it's at these times that the words of Alan Paton ring so true "Cry the Beloved Country"
