Julius Malema

In fairness to the rest on this list, Julius Malema is actually in a league of his own with regards to whipping anti-government sentiments.

The charismatic 38-year-old used to be the youth league president of South Africa’s most successful post-apartheid political party, the African National Congress (ANC).

He left the party in 2012 citing an unwillingness on the part of his seniors to pursue an agenda that would benefit the hitherto underprivileged black majority.

Today, Malema’s left-wing Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) is the third biggest force in parliament despite being less than a decade old.
