Zuma ‘army’ now ragtag mob

The Nkandla Crooner sang a new anthem at his court appearance in Durban on Friday. The lyrics seemed well chosen considering that the power rangers who accompanied him to all his previous court appearances have long fled. The chorus of the song is: “I am wounded by people I grew up with.” He now has a ragtag army around him, among whom are the Guptas’ pay-as-you-go security guard Andile Mngxitama, former SABC chief of chiefs Hlaudi Motsoeneng and the dance-challenged Carl

Niehaus. Msholozi also had an array of clergymen to pray before he walked into court. Hogarth suggests that on top of praying for his charges to go away, uBaba kaDuduzane should seek divine intervention to line up a better squad by the time he makes his next appearance in June.
