South Africa's Zuma slams firebrand youth leader
Sat, Apr 10 2010
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South Africa's outspoken ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema will not be disciplined by the party despite defying President Jacob Zuma's warning to stop inflammatory comments, a youth league source said Tuesday.
World
The source said it had been decided after a five hour meeting of the top six officials of the African National Congress, including Zuma, that the Youth League should deal with Malema rather than the ruling party.
"His comments were made on behalf of the Youth League and not the ANC. We are independent and if there needs to be any disciplinary hearing it should be conducted by us," said the youth league source who attended the meeting.
But the ANC said it was still considering what do about Malema.
"The request for us to pronounce on what action will be taken, is premature, the ANC is still considering what to do," ANC Deputy Secretary General Thandi Modise told reporters on Tuesday.
Malema came under fire from Zuma earlier this month over his support for Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's ZANU-PF and his controversial land reform policies.
Zuma also rebuked Malema for continuing to sing apartheid era songs that racially polarized South Africans and for embarrassing the ruling party by throwing a foreign journalist out of a news conference.
"Malema's comments were made on behalf of the Youth League and individuals should not be singled out," the source said.
Investors have been watching developments between the ANC and its youth wing as some worry that the youth leader's racial rhetoric could spark tensions among races in Africa's biggest economy.
Modise said Zuma's position had not been weakened by the furor around Malema.
"Whatever Malema does, does not make Jacob Zuma a strong or weak president. The president should be judged by his own performance."
