African National Congress Youth League President Julius Malema’s matric results have been verified by education authorities.
E-mails have been doing the rounds showing that Malema graduated with very bad matric results and The Star newspaper has managed to confirm that the e-mail is in fact genuine.
A senior official at the Department of Education confirmed to The Star that a digital copy of Malema’s matric result is genuine despite the Youth League labeling it as a faked attempt to discredit him.
The e-mail reveals that Malema obtained his matric certificate at the age of 21 and that the outspoken youth leader obtained an H in maths and a G in woodwork, both of them on standard grade.
The controversial leader is now 27-years-old.
