The man translated the song on Google and the result has people asking him to brush up on his IsiZulu.
A white man who was unimpressed with the Economic Freedom Fighters’ election song, Uphephela, took to YouTube to explain why the song was apparently a problem.According to the man, Uphephela is a Zulu word for “be safe”, adding that EFF leader Julius Malema uses the song to “indoctrinate” university students.
“I’ve never heard of ‘youfefela’ before but I’ve heard a familiar kind of song but it sounds the same. “It’s clearly trying to get the young generation to follow the EFF, the ANC is so broken, so disoriented.”Watch his video below: Gauteng EFF chairperson Mandisa Mashego slammed the white man, and other white people who called themselves South Africans but never took time to learn the country’s languages.“They insult and humiliate our culture, beliefs and our ways. They insult our music,” she added.
