The one that really baffles me, is about a man who openly pleads poverty; but gets a “Financial Advisor” that bank rolls him with free loans.

I thought the client pays the FA; not the other way round.

If you see one such FA please tell him I also need him!

Maiphephi,Zuma wanted to leave politics and go into business because he felt that his MEC salary doesnt help much in his family responsibilities,and guess what?He was persuaded by Shaik to stay in politics.After that we all know what happened for him to be in a mess he is today and you cant claim ignorance on his behalf,he knows exactly what the cabinet rules are when it comes to conduct of parliamentarians so no pity from thanks.

If it happens that he also shares your logic,then indeed he doesnt deserve to be in any leadreship position.

Maipepi, I hope you were not serious.

If Zuma thought taking bribes from corporations or crime syndicate kingpins, then he really should not be an MP let alone the President.

If someone follows your logic, he should blow your brains out to sell your cellphone, computer and clothes to put food on his table. I don\’t think you or I would like that very much.

Zuma should be given a specially-made access card to south african’s courts of law…he seems to frequent them like a strip-joint
