Duma said because Zuma and Thabo Mbeki are now elders in their communities, they might articulate things the party does not want to hear
Is Zuma still the go-to guy when it comes to campaigning for elections?KwaZulu-Natal ANC provincial chair Siboniso Duma is claiming it’s a lie that former president Jacob Zuma was pushed aside from the ANC. With Zuma being constantly hammered by the leadership of the ANC under President Cyril Ramaphosa, the arms deal corruption case and the losses in the private prosecution matter, Zuma has appeared to be an isolated figure in the party.
“He’s going to participate, he’s going to work but in terms of energy levels, we just have to structure certain arrangements like meeting amakhosi, pastors, meeting with academia. “So that’s the task he must perform.”Regarding whether the KZN ANC has been put on ice following its attempt to oust its president, Ramaphosa, at Nasrec in December by fielding former health minister Dr Zweli Mkhize as a candidate, Duma said: “We are part of the unitary ANC.
But Duma defended Dlamini Zuma’s actions, saying she was not well at the time. “If you don’t feel OK, you go to the doctor and she was not OK at that time.
