Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema, has sent a strong warning to the US to stay away from South Africa’s domestic issues.
This follows US President Donald Trump’s Tweet Thursday morning on South Africa’s land policy where he asked his Secretary of State to study the country’s land seizures and expropriations as well as farm killings.
I have asked Secretary of State @SecPompeo to closely study the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers. “South African Government is now seizing land from white farmers.” @TuckerCarlson @FoxNews

His Tweet was based on a Fox News insert that erroneously claimed that President Cyril Ramaphosa had begun seizing land without compensation.
