EFF leader Julius Malema shared a touching message to his son, Ratanang Malema, who celebrated his 18th birthday on a day filled with reflection, pride, and love.
The public figure, known for his strong opinions and charismatic leadership, revealed a more personal side as he expressed his deep affection and wisdom to his son, now “finally legal.”
In his post, Malema honored a promise he made to “the departed,” pledging to guide Ratanang until he could stand on his own two feet.
“You’ve always been such a well-behaved and respectful kid, and I know that won’t change,” Malema wrote, recognizing the values of discipline and respect that his son has maintained throughout his life.
However, amidst the celebration, Malema also shared a key piece of advice: “Remember, trust nobody, but don’t let anyone drag you down.”
In a world that can often be unpredictable, this statement serves as a guiding principle for Ratanang, urging him to remain cautious while staying true to himself.
Malema’s words also highlighted the importance of humility.
He advised his son to always greet everyone in the room, regardless of age or social standing—emphasizing that respect and politeness should never be influenced by status.
Throughout his message, Malema reflected on how his children, including Ratanang, have been a source of strength for him.
“Whenever I felt like giving up, I looked at you and my grandmother and found the strength to keep going,” he revealed, showing the powerful inspiration his family has provided during challenging times.
