Julius Malema tells voters in KwaZulu-Natal that “Mandela is no more,” and argues that the political influence of past leaders should not determine current elections. He makes a call for a “new generation” of leadership and frames his message as a move away from older political figures.
In his remarks, Malema criticises the African National Congress (ANC) as well as the uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK) Party, which is associated with Jacob Zuma. The outlet presents the speech as a direct attempt by Malema to challenge both established party structures and their historical legacy in the province. The account emphasises Malema’s broader positioning rather than offering detailed policy proposals or specific electoral figures.
