Former president Jacob Zuma says he is being singled out on the arms deal scandal.

In Zuma's view, while he has been branded “corrupt” relating to his alleged role in the arms deal, those who took part in it were living comfortably.

“Just look at how my name has been dragged and destroyed by a democratic and justice kind of society I believe I have fought for,” said Zuma. “That is unfortunate that I find myself being named as I was named by the racists that I was a terrorist when I was fighting for the freedom of South Africa. “This has worried me a great deal as to what type of society are we talking about. Are we different from how those in authority handled us during apartheid than those in authority today?“But all people who participated in the arms deal are free [and] comfortable [while] I have been singled out as the most corrupt.”It was for this reason that he believed that the court trial would help “so that we can find where is this corruption”.

In part seven of the show where Zuma is asked leading questions by his son Duduzane to be released this week, Zuma will also speak about his experiences as a political prisoner and a freedom fighter pre-1994.

...Because he is a Zulu... in a initialy Xhosa party!!

I think it is time to multiple them or single them inside Xamalala sifunu kwazi.

Comrades to Zuma...

🤣🤭....singled out🤣🙆‍♀️....that's just totally funny

Oh boo hoo. I'm heartbroken for him. So, perhaps, when or rather IF, he finds himself in court he should name all those others involved in this corruption? Plus, IF he's so innocent, why has he tried so hard to stay out of court? Cannot wait for this trial to start.

Tough shit.

Boohoo you are so funny Zuma😂😂😂

Who are “all those people?” If Mr Zuma has information pertaining to criminal activity, he should be reporting it, and the perpetrators, to the police.

Simple, point the finger at those that are sitting comfortable, no need to be the only one to answer for this. You know them, right.

Tissues, anyone...?
