Logo for Profile - Julius Malema

Mary Ann Sieghart profiles Julius Malema, the controversial President of the African National Congress Youth Wing. He's an influential and popular figure within the ANC, feared by some whites, but ridiculed by others, who deride his volatile and sometimes abusive public appearances. Following the murder of Eugene Terre'Blanche, he's the most talked about figure in South Africa. He's certainly divided public opinion at a tense political moment and some believe that he may continue to strengthen his influence within the ANC, eventually becoming a future leader.
