R1,200 to listen to Malema speak in Zimbabwe

Zimbabweans will have to fork out almost R1200 to listen to Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema speak in Harare.

Dubbed "South Africa's youngest power broker" by the organisers of the event, Malema is expected in Harare on May 7. Tickets to his talk are $100 each.

Juju has been invited to the event at a time when xenophobic attacks in South Africa - which he blames on President Jacob Zuma - are a hot topic and he is expected to speak about them.

In an advertisement, event organiser Alphamedia Holdings says: "Julius will recount his story of starting his political career with the ANC at age nine [and will share] his views and beliefs on African domination of the world, and his passion and view of the recent events in South Africa."

Malema was last in Zimbabwe in 2012 when he was president of the ANC Youth League, after he was invited by President Robert Mugabe's Zanu-PF party.
