Julius Malema celebrates son’s 20th birthday

Pop the bottles! Julius Malema is celebrating his son Ratanang’s 20th birthday with a typically embarrassing dad moment. The EFF leader’s firstborn is an aspiring DJ and an alumnus of the prestigious private school, St David’s Marist Inanda.

In a video posted on his social media platforms, Julius Malema gave the public a look at his birthday celebrations to son Ratanang.

The 45-year-old pretended to hype up his son by dancing with a bottle of champagne.

Ratanang Malema is like his father in many ways. He recently made his political debut, encouraging youth voter registration and supporting EFF policies such as land expropriation without compensation and free, decolonised education.

Introducing himself to the crowd, he said, “My name is Ratanang Malema, and I am from ward 13, Seshegong. We were called by the leadership to encourage young people to vote.”

He continued: “Young people need to stop standing on the sidelines, as politics affects them. We need to vote for change, for free education, liberation of our people and must vote for economic freedom.”
