Malema was asked about the team during an interview with British Sky News on Tuesday. The Sky News interviewer said: "It did strike me that there weren't many black faces in the group for a black majority country." Malema said the team members were chosen because they were qualified. "We think that we're a non-racial country and all South Africans who have qualified to make Team SA should carry the flag proudly, and we support them," he said. "It's not [any] more about the issue of colour." Malema said there was still a problem with poor communities not having access to sport. Sport Minister Fikile Mbalula was working to resolve this.

I'm back when Zuma is out: Malema

Johannesburg - Former ANCYL president Julius Malema says his expulsion from the ANC will be automatically overturned when President Jacob Zuma is voted out of office in December, it was reported on Tuesday. Malema, who was being interviewed on the BBC's World Service in London on Monday evening, said his expulsion was being contested by structures of the African National Congress, Independent Online reported. He said the ANC's elective conference in Mangaung in December would be used to overturn it. "When we remove President [Jacob] Zuma in December, it will be an automatic overturning of that decision," he was quoted as saying.

Zuma on the airwaves: The sound of nothing, the meaning of silence

Zuma on the airwaves: The sound of nothing, the meaning of silence When the presidency acceded to an interview with Talk Radio 702, surely there was some strategic thinking about what President Jacob Zuma would be communicating. It was to be an hour-long live interview broadcast simultaneously on 702 and its sister station, 567 Cape Talk. Zuma doesn’t do media interviews very often, particularly live broadcasts, and therefore there would have had to be some tactical planning.  There would be consideration given to the timing of the interview and the burning issues on the national agenda. As this was an independent radio station and the interviewer, Redi Tlhabi, was bound to focus on the running controversies, the president would have to be prepped with coherent responses and advised on how to handle the hot potatoes. He would also need to have some positive messaging on tap to counter the current negative publicity. Besides, it’s five months till he is up for re-election; s...
