South Africa’s erratic youth leader and federal legislator, Julius Malema, has attacked Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan over his handling of the massacre in Baga, Borno State.
South African politician clerified Jonathan as “irresponsible” and proposed South African interference against the Islamist Boko Haram militants.
Malema, who also is a leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters Party, condemned Nigerian President for condemning the terrorist attack on a magazine in France when he has stayed silent until date on the massacre in Baga, a troubled community in his own country.

According to the youth leader the South African National Assembly will consider a move on a possible interference in the bloody attack by Boko Haram that reportedly took thousands of lives.
Malema speaking at a press briefing, mocked Jonathan using his first name, Goodluck.
“Eh Goodlook, or Goodluck or whatever his name is or badluck I don’t know …He is quick to release statement about the killing in Paris; but don’t (doesn’t) say anything about the killings in his own country. That’s an irresponsible leadership,” South African politician said.
“We are really saddened by what is happening in Nigeria. It is highly disturbing.”
“And we need South African Government to intervene and we will be raising the matter in the Parliament.
“We will make the Parliament to debate it as an urgent matter and pass the resolution for South African intervention in Nigeria,” he said.
