President Jacob Zuma says the controversy around the recent singing of freedom songs was a sign people had not dealt with the country's history.
Speaking during a visit to hundreds of poor Afrikaners in the Bethlehem informal settlement in Pretoria, Zuma referred to ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema singing the song "shoot the boer".
The President said another sign that South Africans had not "dealt with history" was Friday's ruling by the South Gauteng High Court that the singing of the song was unconstitutional and unlawful.
