Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema will on Wednesday graduate with a BA-Honours Degree in Philosophy from the College of Human Sciences at the University of South Africa.

Malema‚ the fiery MP affectionately known as Juju‚ started his junior degree in 2011‚ graduating in March 2016.

The EFF leader‚ whose official title in the party is Commander in Chief (CIC)‚ also has a diploma in youth development from Unisa.
