Yes, Jacob Zuma will attend Ramaphosa's SONA for the first time | IOL News

Cape Town - Former President Jacob Zuma will be attending President Cyril Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address on Thursday. This comes after Parliament confirmed on Wednesday that Zuma will show up for the event.

It will be the first time the former president attends any of Ramaphosa's SONAs, after he snubbed the event in 2018 and the two SONAs held last year. Zuma also snubbed Ramaphosa's inaugaration after the ANC were victorious in the 2019 national general elections. Zuma reluctantly resigned as state president two years ago after Ramaphosa emerged as party president at the ANC's national elective conference in Nasrec, in 2017. He was replaced by Ramaphosa.

Last week, Speaker Thandi Modise had said Zuma had not yet confirmed whether he will attend SONA or not. Modise said they sent invitations to all former presidents and ex-Speakers of the National Assembly. Former presidents Thabo Mbeki, Kgalema Motlanthe and FW de Klerk had confirmed their attendance of the SONA.

..not..

No he won't

Doesn't he have a sick note ? 🤔🤔🤔

This is beyond a parody.

STEVEN FRIEDMAN: How the courts work — for Zuma and for allJacob Zuma and his cronies may cry ‘political conspiracy’ at talk of an arrest warrant, but the media should know better Zuma is one man against conviction. And he's true revolutionary. To arrest Zuma is to kill the mockingbird of this liberation. He is the man from the jungle. Things are not always political. I don't think MYANC liberation movement can send Zuma to prison not at all🤔
