Jacob Zuma attempted to play the victim at Zondo commission - DA's Mazzone | IOL News

Durban - Democratic Alliance member of parliament Natasha Mazzone has said that former president Jacob Zuma's first day of testimony at the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture on Monday was "a smoke and mirrors show".

"Instead of coming clean, former president Zuma spoke of a biased media, conspiracy theories and assassination plots, none of which could be backed with evidence," said Mazzone. "If these allegations are true, he must reveal which intelligence agencies plotted against him, who was behind the alleged R20 million offer and where the money would have come from," said Mazzone.

"The unrepentant looting and corruption which is estimated to have wiped out a third of South Africa’s R4.9 trillion GDP, took place under his watch," said Mazzone.
