EFF leader Julius Malema and Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula had it out on Twitter on Tuesday. From accusations of dirty money to Karate Kid Metaphors, the exchange was ugly between ”Mr Miyagi” and ”Karate Kid”. It was a lot of dirty laundry aired for their 600 000 Twitter followers.
It all started when the outspoken minister retweeted a picture of his protégé’s Louis Vuitton belt, which he wore at his court appearance.
Mbalula took it a step further when he accused Malema of having a ”doublee personality” for wearing branded clothes and appearing to be poor.
Then all hell broke loose.
He was in Court Today for Limpopo Corruption, has he asked himself to PAY BACK THE LIMPOPO MONEY or he displayed hypocrisy ?
@MbalulaFikile hypocrisy defines you,who are you to lecture us of corruption

A group of vengeful young men rejected by 94% of the electorate is a joke, only thing they can do is to throw insults.
