The former South African president celebrated his 81st birthday, and his daughter, Duduzile has called upon Mzansi to wish her dad the best of wishes on his special day, however, due to his history with corruption allegations and problems with the law, not everyone seemed to be on board with Duduzile’s summon.
DUDUZILE ZUMA ON JACOB ZUMA’S BIRTHDAY
Taking to her timelines, Duduzile said,
“Vukani!!! It’s President Zuma’s Birthday Today.”
A rather far-fetched statement to bring about positive responses for a former president that frequently made headlines for all the wrong reasons.
It’s no secret that the former president was accused of allegedly being involved in corruption with the Gupta brothers, along with other alleged heinous crimes.

It’s no wonder most people weren’t too keen to wish Jacob Zuma well on his big day.
