Andile Lungisa, the chairman of the National Youth Development Agency has threatened to make South Africa "ungovernable" next month because of high youth unemployment.

At the Black Management Forum young professionals' summit in Cape Town on Friday, he attacked the ANC government, young black professionals, African leaders, the DA, Afriforum and the "Stellenbosch mafia".

"In September, we are going to close every street in South Africa. If there is a cheese in your fridge, they are going to take it," Lungisa said.

Lungisa hit out at white and black professionals, saying: "Those who have hairstyles, those who are wearing ties but not helping their community, will be affected. The white males, they need to be attended [to]."

He said South Africa's problems were due to the "Stellenbosch mafia", a group of unnamed, wealthy Stellenbosch families, whom Julius Malema blamed last month for creating opposition to nationalisation.

"The issue of Stellenbosch mafias, the Oppenheimers, must be attended [to. It cannot be] that all of us must live with five white families who live in Stellenbosch and control the economy."

Lungisa said that "on the African continent we have the weakest leadership ever"

Lungisa said the quality of education in South Africa was poor. "If you go to Standard Bank, to FNB, to the Reserve Bank, all the guys in charge, they come from Zimbabwe," said Lungisa.

Higher-quality Zimbabwean education had to be implemented in South Africa.
