South African Politician, and charismatic leader of South Africa's Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), Julius Malema, has criticized the leadership of Ghana for expressing support for the ongoing events in Gaza.

Malema did not mince his words while expressing strong disapproval for actions against the people of Gaza and condemning those who endorse such actions.

He argued that the people of Gaza had not committed any offense in their attempt to defend their territory, and that anyone who supported Israel is an enemy to South Africans.

“Shame on the Leadership of Ghana for supporting Israel,” he said.

During an event dubbed: ‘A dialogue with Julius Malema’ held at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Accra, he vehemently stated that, "Anyone who said the people of Palestine must be killed is an enemy of ours. The people of Palestine have not committed any sin to anyone."

His comments reflect a stance against the violence and conflicts that have plagued the region for years. Mr Malema further stated that Hamas, the governing authority in Gaza, is right in their demand for the people of Palestine to reclaim their land and exercise self-determination.

He called for international respect for the wishes of the Palestinian people, asserting that decisions about their future should not be imposed externally.

Furthermore, the EFF leader criticized the idea of external entities, such as the United Nations, dictating terms for a two-state solution in Palestine. Malema argued that such decisions should be made by the Palestinians themselves, and not any external body.
