JOHANNESBURG. — Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema has married his long-time girlfriend Mantwa Matlala in a private ceremony under heavy security in his hometown Seshego, Polokwane, in Limpopo.
Sunday Times reported that the traditional ceremony on Saturday was policed by more than 20 security guards in black suits and red ties who ensured that only invited guests entered.
The ceremony in a big white marquee outside Matlala’s home was attended by 500 people.
At the end of the street, a large glass marquee was erected.
Meanwhile, City Press reported that Matlala was wearing a layered fuchsia tulle skirt and navy bodice with traditional detailing, while Malema wore a simple unembellished blue dashiki. According to the report, some guests arrived in a helicopter and were taken to the wedding venue in a Golf 7.
Malema bought his bride an expensive engagement ring with blue diamonds before the wedding, the newspaper reported.
Guests included EFF chairman Dali Mpofu, Malema’s lawyer Tumi Mokwena, former Muvhango actress Lerato Moloi and former Limpopo premier Cassel Mathale. — Sapa
