Ntsiki Mazwai at War with Julius Malema over Women’s Day Address

Ntsiki Mazwai has problematized the matter of Economic Freedom Fighter, Commander-In-Chief, Julius Malema spearheading the National Women’s Day address.

The outspoken poet and controversial Twaleb asked why a man that allegedly stated that women enjoy being raped was tasked with giving a keynote address directed at women.

Ntsiki did not drag Julius Malema, but the most prominent female executive members of the party, Leigh Mathys and Naledi Chiriwa.

Where was Leigh Mathys and Naledi Chirwa when it was decided a man must address women on womens day???? A man who said a woman enjoyed being raped.

The post was in line with Ntsiki’s own Women’s Day address that was posted on her YouTube channel. The address questioned why men like Julius Malema and President Cyril Ramaphosa were leading addresses during a female-centred holiday, especially considering their own sordid pasts on victimizing women.

Her questioning was supported by her following and EFF members that agreed that is was nonsensical that men lead the discussion over women’s bodies and rights. Tweeps that attempted to defend Julius Malema faced the wrath of Ntsiki Mazwai.
