The ANC Youth League’s website has fallen prey to hackers. On Wednesdsay afternoon, the site’s homepage featured a post claiming to be from the “{Blah Blah} protest group” stating that the league’s president, Julius Malema, had decided to step down.
The tongue-in-cheek post, dated 29 March, says: “After much thought I Julius Malema have decided to step down as ANC Youth league President.”
It goes on to list the reasons Malema has decided to step down.
“I have brought my party the ANC in to disripute; I have disrespected my elders and have made a fool out of myself; I promote Nationalization even though i have no concerpt of how it works or its blacklash to the economy; I promote my own agenda over my country’s and parties; I promote the singing racist songs to promote violence and un-rest in the country; I do not consider youth issues.”
The hackers, who are clearly not enamoured of Malema and his policies, adds one final blow in the post: “It is with great hope that I step down and welcome a new era in the ANCYL, one where thought and vison inspire our country rather then racism and personal ambition destroy it.”
ANC Youth League spokesman Floyd Shivambu could not immediately be reached for comment.
Shortly after TechCentral published this story, the offending post was removed from the Youth League’s website. — Staff reporter, TechCentral
