Jacob Zuma hospitalised for 'unknown ailment'

Durban - Former president Jacob Zuma was hospitalised for a whole week when the Pietermaritzburg High Court turned down his application to appeal a judgment that found him guilty of defaming former minister Derek Hanekom.

Jacob Zuma Foundation chairperson Dudu Myeni had on Friday confirmed that embattled Zuma had been admitted at a Durban hospital for an unknown ailment. Earlier last month Zuma suffered another defeat when Judges Thoba Poyo-Dlwati, Bhekisisa Mnguni and Esther Steyn dismissed the application in which he and his co-accused France arms manufacturer Thales were seeking a leave to appeal a high court ruling against application for the permanent stay of prosecution for the arms deal fraud and corruption charges.

Myeni said it was unknown what Zuma was suffering from, and she asked for him to be given space to recoup. She said the public would be advised at a later stage as to when would Zuma be able to appear before the commission. Myeni said Zuma was only discharged on Thursday, the day Judge Dhaya Pillay turned down his application in the Hanekom matter.

Please follow Mugabe

People don't believe when somebody says they are sick only when that person dies then they say he was truthful he happens in many companies. I wish former president speedy recovery though.

You killed the our country Nxamalala, but for some reason I still love you, I can't figure that out in me. Speedy recovery Sir

Sheikalitis

Mr zuma is better than this one who only focus on business people than government officials

MbuyiseniNdlozi This one is full of tricks. Okare ke ngwana wa primary

Who inherits Nkandla

The is no Mantuli to be accused now

Unknown being the operative word which says doctors can’t find anything wrong but the patient says he is feeling sick like a child who says they sick do can’t go to school he is looking for sympathy and hopefully cases dropped

This corn artist must get better soonest to come answer for this thievery.....

Corruptissaesis...

State capture sickness 2

Speedy recovery Msholozi

There goes more of my tax money 💰

May the old man get well

Get well President

Its because of world cup trophy

This is what happens when a President commits crime during his presidency.. He doesn’t enjoy his retirement! Soo unnecessary and self inflicted pain

Msholozi beware of dis devils they want to kill you

He has been poisoned more than once before...

What a complete fucking farce.

When you're 78 years old with a 25 year old wife , you can't afford to be hospitalised. You must do squats and push ups everyday!

MbuyiseniNdlozi Please get well soon I want you to go back to court and argue your legal team led by Skhakhane SC intrests me. You have alot to answer Mr, please get well.

MbuyiseniNdlozi Ijo ijo ujo ijo ijo ancestors calling? Damit

Shall we move the court to the hospital for him. I am sure it's not a private hospital as all the ex presidents have agreed to go to a General Hospital in view on the pending NHI.

You waste our money and now you waste hospital resources. No doubt you’re in private. poorleadership

I am your biggest critic and despise what you did to our country BUT wish you a speedy and full recovery. I am not in the business of wishing you ill health

Ag, shame, we really feel sorry for him.

A Shabbir Shaik move, 👁️ see!

MbuyiseniNdlozi I wish the former President PresJGZuma a speedy recovery. May he live long to see the tangible fruits of the free education that he has ushered.

Skelm is not a disease

mytouchrecords Newspapers are talking unknown thing, why must they write abt unknown...

Yes. Apparently you can die from GUILT

Speedy recovery Nxamalala,we really can't afford to lose u✊✊👊

Rehearsal to pull a Shabir Shark. Or is it another fake poisoning...

There is nothing wrong with saying undisclosed ailment. Unknown can also imply incompetence of the medical team attending to the former president, or any other unfortunate scenario, which I doubt is the case.

FFS!

It's the Shaiks.

Zuma stalling with FAKE illness

Get well soon PresJGZuma ❤️❤️❤️

Hospitalized for acute statecapturitis.

MbuyiseniNdlozi Wishing him speedy recovery Inde Lendlela

Phunyuka bamphethe.

Why should Zuma's ailment be called unknown? Since when has it been a requirement for former politicians illnesses to be made public?

Old man is bn persecuted at all levels like he ain't no freedom fighter😢😭😭 strength to him and his family

Cannot believe the amount of gormless wonders that still defend this thief ! Disgusting !

His sins are catching up with him.

I’m waiting for the “ I was poisoned” tweet...

“Shaik’s Disease”. Known to manifest when faced with corruption charges.

MbuyiseniNdlozi I think we must give former president a benefit of the doubt that he is indeed sick. He is over 70 years old and there are people who are very young who can't even dance for'mshini wam' like he does.

MbuyiseniNdlozi It suits him just fine,bloody thief.

MbuyiseniNdlozi 😅😅 This tweet is starting to make sense now🤣🤣🤣

MbuyiseniNdlozi None of our business really...

Truth dialysis

He just wants a sick note for the Zondo commission...

Yooooo.... do you think shaik is contagious?

Wouldn't put it past him to fake it or pay off the doctors to keep him there.

I thought he was lying
