Terrence Mawawa | Firebrand opposition leader, Julius Malema has said the people of South Africa have drawn practical lessons from what happened in Zimbabwe over the past two decades.

Speaking in that country’ s Parliamentary debate on the State of the Nation Address made by President Cyril Ramaphosa, Malema accused the Zanu PF regime of depriving the late MDC leader, Morgan Tsvangirai of the right to rule Zimbabwe.

Malema made the remarks during the Parliamentary debate in Capetown today.

“We all agree that Morgan Tsvangirai spent his life fighting for democracy in Zimbabwe.

He was deprived of the opportunity to rule Zimbabwe by the regime although he had won the elections in 2008.

I wish to convey my heartfelt condolences to the people of Zimbabwe following Tsvangirai’ s death.

We will never allow the ANC to subvert the will of the people. That will not happen here in South Africa,” said Malema.
