"Young" President Malema, the law is supreme

I am shocked by recent reported quotes of Julius Malema. The ANC Youth League president is reported to be saying that when Jacob Zuma goes back to court in August he would be the president of the country, and Malema suggests that prosecuting JZ during this time would be an embarrassment to the country. Malema further states that when they (the ANC) campaign for elections they would do so as if there were no charges against Msholozi.

Well, my advice to the youth league president are that if he or anyone in the African National Congress think it would be unfit for a president to be prosecuted and believe that it would embarrass the country then they should withdraw Jacob Zuma as their presidential candidate. By doing this they would be saving the country the embarrassment Malema is talking about.

Malema should also remember that no one in this country is above the law, even the president- or so it ought to be.

I believe the ANC will win the next elections- one does not need to be a political analyst to predict this. And because the ANC, as Malema says, will be going ahead with Jacob Zuma as their “face of elections” then Malema must anticipate the embarrassment he is talking about.
