Social Media Explodes Over Julius Malema Marriage Shock

@Musa_Khawula Julius Malema’s marriage is reportedly over after his wife, Mantwa Matlala, filed for divorce. They married in December 2014.

@ChrisExcel102 They were married in community of property, which means Mantwa owns half of the EFF.

@pdmangava This is sad, and I don’t wish divorce on anyone. I hope every married couple grows old together, but the devil keeps winning. If this is true, we wish strength to the CIC and Mantwa as they resolve their issues.

@Rich_Mashimbye That may be true, but did you miss the point that your CIC – the goat – is allegedly the one cheating on beautiful Mantwa for some time?

@phumelele_gasa May God be with them during this trying time. It is sad to see families fall apart. May the children be comforted.

@JusticeShai The last time I checked, Malema had the Ratanang Trust long before the EFF and his marriage, so his assets are safe.

@Junior10155402 My CIC betrayed by a woman, just like many great leaders in the Bible.

@_Kastido They reportedly signed a prenup stating she would move into Winnie Madikizela-Mandela House.

@GlitEdgee Love Mantwa – she is a true fighter.

@Sthamber The First Lady, Mantwa Malema, and the Commander-in-Chief, Julius Malema – all rumours remain unverified.

@TawanaM14 Apparently Malema has another son in Lesotho. Go and find out.

@BafanaSurprise Mantwa has every reason to divorce Juju: alleged cheating, emotional and physical abuse claims, and controversy surrounding his public conduct. That is not a man many would want to spend their life with.
