Social media was flooded with reaction after controversial businessman and Patriotic Alliance (PA) politician Kenny Kunene called EFF leader Julius Malema “a little frog” and an “irritating cockroach”.
Speaking on eNCA, Kunene said he will “deal” with Malema and threatened to expose him. He added that he will reveal the reasons why he left the EFF.
“Once I am done, I will then deal with this little frog. Julius is just an irritating cockroach that I must now deal with publicly,” Kunene said.
“When I meet him, he must tell me that I am a bantiti [convict] to my face. In the meantime, I will be calling the media and addressing all these issues publicly. After we have done what our people have voted for us to do, we just want to conclude our coalitions and set up our governments — and then I will deal with this little cockroach.”
I don’t know if extreme violence brewing or what! Kenny calling Malema a cockroach and you know how it pan out in Rwanda. Guns are out and it looks like someone will be dismembered. #COALITIONS #xenophobic

His comments come just hours after Malema said he cannot imagine his party working with the PA, calling them ex-convicts.
