Zuma set to appear before state capture commission

Former President Jacob Zuma appears unfazed ahead of the testimony he is set to give at the State Capture Commission of enquiry on Monday. Zuma’s testimony is set down to continue until Friday.

The former president is accused of mismanagement of state resources and being central to state capture.

At least five witnesses at the commission have implicated Zuma’s name, but only two witnesses have directly implicated the former president. However, he indicated that he does not believe there is any evidence against him.

Former Bosasa operations head Angelo Agrizzi claimed Zuma was bribed by his then boss, Gavin Watson, using former SAA board chair, Dudu Myeni. 

According to a former ANN7 news editor, Rajesh Sundaram, Zuma helped facilitate visas for the Guptas’ staff from India.  Sundaram went on to claim Zuma’s influence helped secure a sweet deal for ANN7 when it purchased SABC archives.

The government official responsible for a Gupta plane landing at Waterkloof Air Force Base, Bruce Koloane also admitted using Zuma’s name to help secure the landing.
