Johannesburg - Political experts anticipate that former president Jacob Zuma will exercise restraint when he takes the stand for the second time at the Zondo Commission of Inquiry into State Capture next week.

According to political analyst Ralph Mathekga, Zuma has been suffering extensively in his court challenges, such as with the defamation case brought against him by former tourism minister and ANC national executive committee member Derek Hanekom, who Zuma called an enemy agent in a tweet. “I’m expecting to see him quite subdued, but relentless in the same attitude of not believing that there was state capture,” Mathekga said.

He said that the way in which Zuma engaged the commission in answering questions showed he had no intention of lending it credibility. Zuma’s upcoming appearance at the commission comes barely a week after he appeared before the Pietermaritzburg High Court on corruption charges.

Does he even know the meaning of the word.....zuma that is🤔

Why can't this criminal be charged like any other person suspected of corruption? Is Zondo commission waiting for him to admit to his corruption and state capture, while wasting taxpayers money?

What does a captured state look like? An untouchable Pravin? An client in the form of SOE, that gets dictated to by service providers? A government that needs approval from individuals on acts that would benefit it's people? What is state capture! What did the Guptas capture?

Public protector bill to add to Jacob Zuma's legal fee woes | IOL NewsIt has emerged that former president Jacob Zuma owes the public protector R330 000 in unpaid legal fees. No, it is a lot more. Lets not underplay the amount, it is in the millions that he owes in legal fees that taxpayers have footed. Anyone else and they would have had all assets sold off and facing jail time. Corrupt to the core But he is skipping along merrily. Ignorant. Is it true AdvBMkhwebane ?
