Sundaram said the then president was the go-to-guy for the Gupta brothers when they ran into problems with their Infinity Media asset, also keeping Zuma in the loop, like one would a shareholder, about developments at the station.
He described three meetings that ANN7 management had with then president Zuma in 2013 at his Pretoria residence, claiming that Duduzane was present at one. At this meeting, the president was said to have been shown examples of the station's best bulletins.Asked if he thought there was a conflict of interest in him having a shareholding in a company conducting business with the government, he said it was not an"issue".
"The simple fact is government advertising should never be an issue. The conflict, that because my father was the president, I think that’s an unfair point to make by Sundaram or anybody else. When it comes to government ad spend, just like any other outlets out there, they are getting government support via advertising revenue," said Duduzane.Would you like to comment on this article or view other readers' comments?
