2 May 2017
The FF Plus today asked the Human Rights Commission (HRC) to investigate possible hate speech, intimidation and incitement to violence against Prof. Chris Malikane, advisor for Malusi Gigaba, the new minister of finance, says Adv. Anton Alberts, chairperson of the FF Plus.
It follows on remarks that Malikane allegedly made on 29 April this year at a meeting of the group Blacks in Dialogue in Johannesburg, as reported by News24.
Malikane reportedly said ''armed rebellion'' against the minority in South Africa is a ''realistic option/action plan” to achieve the goal of the ANC. According to the article he also said:
“We need a two-thirds majority to change the Constitution. Otherwise, to achieve what we want to achieve, we need to go that route [take up arms]. Let`s try two-thirds. I don`t like war.”
