Dances with - no words -
Jacob Zuma, the man who has successfully become the president of South Africa. Dances like a moneky in public, has unmarital sexual relations and “believes’ that a shower will clean you from Aids – this man just doesnt siece to amaze us and the world. Last night while watching the news on ETV, I couldnt believe my ears when they said that is take R15million (R15 000 000) a year to support his wives and children. Lets do some math.
1. R1 250 000 a month
2. R41 666 a day
3. R1736 per hour
Can you spend R1736 an hour for 24 hours for the whole year? Jacob Zuma can. I didnt vote for this monkey, I mean president, but I sure hope that the poor people who did are happy that they have a president who spends their money on his family while they have a one room house – if they even have one.
What could R15 000 000 do for this community?
Heres an insert from AllAfrica.com.
The cost to the taxpayer of support for President Jacob Zuma ‘s wives and children almost doubled in 2009-10, soaring to more than R15m from R8m a year before, according to figures released by the Presidency yesterday.
Speculation has been rife since Zuma came to power over the cost of his extended family, both during his term and once he has left office, and whether this would include children born from extramarital relations.
Yesterday, in response to a question from Democratic Alliance parliamentary leader Athol Trollip, Minister in the Presidency Collins Chabane said that in 2008-09 the spousal office budget was R8,076m while the adjusted budget for 2009-10 was R15,517m. The spousal office in the Presidency provides support and benefits to spouses and children of the president.
When Trollip asked what the expenses and benefits enjoyed by Zuma’s wives and children were, Chabane provided guidelines.
“Although the spouses have no constitutionally defined roles, obligations or responsibilities and as such are not remunerated by the state, they are, however, expected to provide support to the President in the execution of his duties, and specifically at state and official functions. In addition, the spouses may fulfil other official functions in support, and in the interest, of the Republic. read more from AllAfrica.com

Its amazing how we just accept this bull from our “leaders”. I don’t blame the women that throw themselves at Zuma, I really don’t.
I know exactly what you mean. Its like when we go into a bank and the line is out the door yet there will only be one teller. Who complains? Not us South Africans. we allow this to happen to us too often.
