'Hacked?'- Julius Malema hits back after posting racy picture

Julius Malema has defended his birthday message to socialite Babalwa Mneno, after social media users accused it of being inappropriate and suggested that his account may have been hacked.

The trouble started when Julius posted a birthday message to Babalwa on his Twitter account. His message included a picture that many thought was inappropriate.

But Julius was not in the mood for his critics and told them to calm their jealousy.
