Old Photo of Julius Malema With His Cousin Mpho Gets South Africa Talking
A photograph of Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema standing alongside his cousin Mpho Edward Malema is making the rounds on social media.
The image gained new attention after media reports confirmed that Mpho Malema, 40, was arrested and faces charges of fraud, corruption, and theft in connection with an alleged ghost fleet tender scandal.
South Africans have taken to social media to share strong reactions to the resurfaced image, with many users weighing in on the alleged link between the tender scandal and the political leader.
Claims linking Julius Malema to the alleged scandal have not been established by a court, and the allegations remain unproven.
