Embattled ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema joined anti-tolling protesters as they marched to the Gauteng premier’s office in Johannesburg
He told them that the ANC has to listen to the masses.
“The march is not ANC, it is to ask that promises are kept. Cosatu is the one leading the march. The ANC must listen to the masses,” he told the cheering crowd in the city centre.
Malema said while some 'Mickey Mouses' would say only 30,000 people had turned out for the event, “I see 150,000”.
With Malema’s arrival the crowd, which stretched back six blocks, picked up new vigour.
Marshalls could not contain protesters, spilling from Rissik Street on to De Korte, who rushed towards him chanting his nickname, “Juju, Juju”.
After meeting the protesters, Malema left in a black Mercedes, before returning to address the crowd.
Cosatu general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi was also given a hero’s welcome.
