This seems rather odd considering Malema's recent visit to Zimabwe, and I cannot verify whether this has actually happened, other than to attest that I have read the SMS (in Afrikaans) sent to a friend from a client of theirs.

The SMS, translated, basically said the following:

This South African guy's family, (parents, two brothers & their wives, and seven grandchildren), all live on a massive farm in Zimbabwe. Last night the drums started and they were told they have about four hours to vacate the premises. The farm is a large concern with millions of Rands worth of livestock. Within an hour the homestead was surrounded by black people. They threw stones at the windows, breaking many of them. Our friend hasn't heard from his family, is quite distraught, and doesn't whether his family is alive, or dead.
 
I got a similar sms from an unknown number, but I just ignored the message.

Ons vra vir almal se gebede. Vir ons volk wat in Zim sit. Hulle word 'npaar uur gegee om hul plase te verlaat. Die swart massa is om hulle, besig om op dromme te slaan en vensters te breek om in die huise te kom. Asb, stuur aan. Ons kort almal se gebede. Ds Wessels

Ja, I got a similar SMS (slightly different, but same basic story)... but I can't find anything in the news about it.
 
Believe it -- or NOT

I just found out the guy spreading the message, Ds Wessels was also close to E.T and the same pastor that burried him.

I hope that this is not "opstook" nonsense. ( Just like those fake farm murder images )

IF it is -- then they do themsleves far more harm

You ONLY "cry wolf" ONCE

But I don't know -- these people seem to be bereft of working brain-cells :(

My friend knows the actual person whose family it is & actually spoke to him in person this morning, I have now verified.

Did I say anything about leaving. If you have a family, and you look at what has already happened all of Africa, you'd be wise to have a backup plan. I love this country - I do not love what is happening to people in it (white, black, coloured, Indian...).

Considering how chummy-chummy the ANC is with ZANU-PF, we should just be aware of what is happening so that we are not trapped in the same situation 10 years down the line.
 
Yeah ok got the message now try saying something that hasn't been repeated ad nauseum.
