'I have to sell hats, socks to pay for legal fees.'

Facing corruption charges for a case dating back to the 1990s, Zuma, 77, was in court this week seeking a permanent stay of prosecution.

In December a court ruled that Zuma, who was ousted last year over multiple graft scandals, should foot his own legal fees. His lawyer Muzi Sikhakhane told the court that"Mr Zuma remains here, squeezed out of everything he could do. He has no finances, the State has squeezed that".

This clown has been smoking his socks, yes, not selling them!

For how much? Must be very expansive socks and hats...

But at 250k PM one would think he should be able to pay for his legal services. It's just that he has become an except at playing the victim and lying to everyone else that he doesn't realise we know some of these things. 3M p/a

Zuma must opt for the state lawyer to save himself some money. it doesn't help to continue using private lawyers if you cant afford them. he is no longer president but an ordinary citizen, he must live as such.

Apply for legal aid ....

Mare ke waar ena?

Eya moo ke waar

Ag shamepies.

But he said his legal team is doing the job for free musi! Ayii lekhehla no man!!

Sell Nkandla!

Lol. Forced by who? Who knew had stock? Probably bought through stolen money...

So says a man who says if he had money, he would have paid white lawyers, instead of getting free black legal representation ZumaTrial

He must be having very expensive hats and socks

Andrew95754643 Bullshit!

He is a good salesman, selling a whole country is a rare skill.

Even if you were to sell your handkerchiefs, you got a case to answer. There's legal aid services for free in SA, or go look for Atul.

He must start with the $300m compound in Dubai. That will cover all his legal expenses, he'll have more left to procure 6 more wives😂😂😂

Zuma must get more wife's then they can help selling socks, flippen laughable awesome love it.

My heart pumps custard for this lieing thieving swine. He probably owns a sock factory given to him by the guptas that's how he can sell socks

Tell him to start a GoFundMe

Vipey007 Socks? And there is a market for the used socks of JZ?

Lesotlo, lenyatso, go kobisa !!!!🙆🏽‍♀️

Maybe he was saying to his followers indirectly instead of standing & singing here for me the whole day try selling socks & hats..

Well he sold the country away years ago so how hard can socks be.

This is a lie he start to use the Gaddafi s cash and all the kickbacks he got from all corrupt activities happened under his watch. I say he left with nothing
