“We must find the killers of DJ Sumbody because the question we must ask of ourselves is who is next?
“If DJ Sumbody owed someone money and that person killed him because of it, that fool must know they won’t get the money,” said Malema.
Malema urged the government to intervene in Pretoria as well, claiming that the city had fallen into a mafia state where people killed one another and had no regard for human life.
“People from Pretoria don’t respect black lives. To them a black life does not matter,” said Malema.
He claimed that local shootings were becoming more frequent. “We’re praying the person who killed DJ Sumbody must be arrested. We are making a clarion call to the minister to arrest the person,” said Malema.
Malema claimed last week that the state had let him down and that he was devastated by the DJ’s passing. “Oupa, we failed you. Like many others, you are a victim of a mafia state, failed state. Robala mfanaka mara I’m not OK.”
