“He is compromised. He is gone. He has sold out...[With] his sellout tendencies he will never the lead the youth league,” Malema told The Star newspaper.

Malema criticised a statement by Lamola that the youth league would support the outcome of the ANC national elective conference in Mangaung regardless of whether their endorsed candidates won.

“Without being asked a question, he just said we will accept the results even if [Jacob] Zuma wins. Even among the forces of change, Lamola is not anybody to be listened to. He is a traitor, he is not going to carry that mandate to its logical conclusion,” Malema said.

Malema said he was shocked to see Lamola at his court hearings and said he did not need “Lamola in my life”.

“I do not need him. I was never made by Lamola. He does not know where I come from. I don’t need Lamola in my life in the same way I have never needed Lamola in my political career.” 

Lamola declined to comment to the paper, saying he had to "consult with comrades" before offering a response to Malema’s criticisms.

Whether it is true or not, Politics and politicians are not the solution to the problems of SA, they have out done themselves (in a bad way). we need new systems because politicians will never serve the needs of the poor like they claim. it is in their nature to lie, kill, cheat, backsturb, and sell each other, what good can we expect from that.

I hear some people talking about mangaung as if it is the solution, well friends, it is not, whether Kgalema wins or Jacob, things will get worse, whethr DA, UDM or COpe leads, things will only get worse. we need inovation.

Yes Lamola jump the gun, given that we are still campaigning for Mangaung but what he said is expected to any member of the ANC no matter who did you support. The outcomes of the result must be respected & new leaders must be respected.

The only problem with Lamola's statement is the timing, of which it can be understood as opportunistic.

Hahahaha Malema everybody wishes to enjoy what u were enjoying kwaaa
You shud have learnt respect and manner of aproach to your leaders and the SA community at large and you wud still be the ANC pres by now.
Arrogancy is the one that put u where u r today, and if u continue boasting and insulting like u r still doing, its most likely u will go down steady but surely.


people r eyeing positions and nobody cares about u anymore except for the voiceless that u use to use for your campains , those who used to sleep in the streets with no food in support of u, while u slept in luxurious hotels enjoying choice of meals

wake up dude and smell the coffee , focus on your studies bcz soon you will be forgotten and be in history that wont even pay you dividents

The fat boy is beginning to show signs of strain and stress. The honourable Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Mhlanganyelwa Mzondwa Zuma once said: IT IS COLD OUT THERE....
The fat one did not believe him then, but surely he does now.
The fat one must go get a mas'sage from Tokyo or Motlanthe to cool down and get back to his senses.

Watch out Lamola.... The barrage of constant insults are coming your way very soon and will be a common feature until Mangaung. He is angry that the ANCYL is slowly but surely moving away and cleansing itself of Malema cancer.

IT IS COLD OUT THERE INDEED.

Mhh...Kulikhuni, kunzima kubhuti uSello
