He prefer his material in english, PRG is double medium and he ace english home language. Spent last year in the UK and speak rooitaal like a Pommie.

Like father, like son.

My family laugh at my english. When I struggle with rooitaal on a helpline, I have to give the sel phone to my son or MRS. My tupperwares drop out of my mouth when I try to speak english.

Maak sin. As jy aanmekaar daai Engelse "th" klank moet maak, gaan jou tong mos jou valstande uitskiet.

Johannesburg - Former president Jacob Zuma has defied a Constitutional Court order which required him to indicate whether he will defend a case brought against him by the Judicial Commission of Inquiry into allegations of State Capture.

The commission lodged an urgent application in the apex court on December 3, asking the court to force Zuma to comply with summonses served on him to respond to 35 witnesses who linked him to state capture while he was president of South Africa.


Zuma had until 3.30pm today to file his answering affidavit.

Instead, through his attorney Eric Mabuza, he wrote to Acting Registrar of Constitutional Court Dumisani Mathiba saying he would not participate in the proceedings.

Mabuza wrote: “We are acting on instructions by our client, president JG Zuma that he will not be participating in these proceedings at all.

“The application to the apex court followed after Zuma and his legal counsels left the commission without obtaining the permission of the presiding officer Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo on November 19.

“Now, Professsor (Itumeleng) Mosala wants the court to force Zuma to give evidence and answer allegations that concern his alleged failure as president and head of the national executive to fulfil his constitutional obligations of the Constitution and oath of office.

“The respondent (Jacob Zuma) is obliged to comply with any summons signed and issued by the secretary of the commission served on the respondent. The respondent’s conduct in excusing himself and leaving the venue of the commission hearing on 19 November 2020 without the permission of the chairperson is unlawful and breaches section 3 (1) of the Commissions Act 8 of 1947,” Mosala said.


The commission wants Zuma to be ordered to comply with the summons issued by Mosala directing him to appear before the commission on January 18 to 21 and again on February 15 to 19 next year.

“It is ordered that, when appearing before the commission and after he has taken the oath or affirmation, Zuma shall answer any questions put to him by the designated evidence leader and the chairperson of the commission, subject to the privilege against self-incrimination, and may not rely on the right to remain silent,” Mosala said.

Is he going to

a) Run
b) Hide
c) Take it like a man.

Seriously, what are the odds of Zuma doing the time?

[average joe]

He'll be out in 5 months and I bet this whole zondo thing will be over and done with and you'll never hear about it again.

It stated he will serve 15 months in jail

Even if he is old and sick, he has to serve a certain amount of time. While this is not quite the knockout blow, his arms deal case starts this month I think.
That should just sink him.

Let's hope his short stay there is as uncomfortable as possible

We have a choice between serving our time in Joburg or Nkandla. Of course we (sic) have chosen to be close to home. Lockdown or no lockdown, we will escort you to serve your time," she tweeted.

I think that someone should explain to Ms Zuma that he has to report to the Police and will transferred to a Correctional Services Facility.
I very much doubt that he will be imprisoned for 15 months at the Nkandla Police Station.

They probably host him at Melmoth.
