Malema who was the key not speaker canvassed for the economic, social and political unity of Africa. Emphatically, he condemned the frequent xenephobic attacks in South Africa.
“ …let me be unequivocally here, Xenephobia is a betrayal of African Unity, it is a sickness born of poverty, inequality and government failure but its victims are our African brothers and Sisiters. Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Congo, Somalia are not the cause of South Africa’s unemployment crisis..” he said.
“We don’t want alchohol advertised in South Africa because they advertise alcohol through the means that is not a true reflection of alcohol. Why are you not advertising alcohol with drunkards and show people what alcohol can do to them? It cannot be that alcohol is advertised only with beautiful people at the beach. It must be a true reflection of what this will do to you.”
