‘I’m not in the e-mails. I’m not in the Guptas' phonebook’, says Malema
EFF leader Julius Malema is adamant that his name won’t appear in the leaked Gupta e-mail dump. He was speaking in a wide ranging interview given to Tbo Touch on his Touch HD radio show on Wednesday. Malema emphasised that he has never had contact with the Gupta family — whose leaked e-mails have revealed unflattering connections to ANC power-brokers. "I’m not in the e-mails‚" Malema said. "I’m not in the Gupta’s phonebook. They’ve never called me. I’ve never met the Guptas. They’ve never WhatsApp’d me. They never send me an SMS. I am a free soul." Malema made a point of saying he was not interested in coalition governance with the DA. His vision for 2019 is for outright winners in the provinces with strategic voting‚ if necessary.
