Youth League calls for political solution to Malema expulsion


The ANC Youth League in the Eastern Cape says a "political solution" needs to be found to the expulsion of
Julius Malema from the ANC and from the Youth League.

Spokesperson Nkosinathi Nomatiti said it did not believe that the ANC should expel members of its
preparatory school.
He said it shoul rather respond with a corrective intention and not through extreme punitive measures.

He likened the expulsion of Malema from the ruling party, and the suspension of two other league officials, to the
banning of liberation movements under apartheid.

Nomatiti said Wednesday night's decision by the ANC's disciplinary committee amounted to "political intolerance and was an attempt to close down "democratic space" within the movement.
