In a statement released on Thursday evening Malema said he had wanted to offer the apology in parliament but he was 'drowned out' and had his mic switched off before he could relay the message to Ramaphosa. kgmadisa

“After a long discussion with my wife about the president’s apology, I have decided to pen down the apology that I should have communicated on the platform of the Joint Sitting of parliament where it belonged.”He said that he was provoked by Mamabolo’s repeated accusations but admitted that it was wrong for him to respond by also levelling further accusations which were directed to Ramaphosa.

“If there should be evidence produced to dispute my claim, even as minute as a molecule, I will be prepared to resign as an MP and President of the EFF. This I will do before the matter can serve in a competent court of law,” Malema said. “It was therefore in a desperate act of personal defense which I now regret because of how critical the matter of gender-based violence is for all of us as a country.
