Another bitter spat has erupted between Elon Musk and Julius Malema after the billionaire’s call for the EFF leader to be declared an “international criminal”.
The South African-born owner of Tesla and SpaceX made the remarks in a post on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in response to an old video in which Malema claimed that the DA only supports its white leaders.
Musk accused Malema of deliberately calling for the genocide of white South Africans.
The billionaire said sanctions must be imposed on Malema and the EFF leader should be declared an “international criminal.”

DA federal chairperson Helen Zille announced on Monday afternoon that the party filed papers electronically with the high court on Friday.
Zille said the presidency signed the act into law despite the advice of Public Works and Infrastructure Dean Macpherson, who provided Ramaphosa with a legal opinion that there were issues with the bill that rendered it unconstitutional.
