Jacob Zuma's Midnight Arrest After 3 Days Of Defiance (IN NEWS PICS) by TMKsouth: 4:33am On Jul 08, 2021
Minutes before midnight on Wednesday, Jacob Zuma’s foundation announced: ‘Dear South Africans and the World. Please be advised that President Zuma has decided to comply with the incarceration order.’

Jacob Zuma’s motorcade sped out of his Nkandla homestead at about 11.20pm on Wednesday, as he ostensibly rushed to hand himself over to the Correctional Services in order to avoid arrest.

It is understood that the president being transported by his state-sponsored VIP protection was agreed upon by police leadership at a provincial and national level.

He was given until Sunday to hand himself over, failing which the minister of police and the national commissioner of police were ordered to ensure his arrest by midnight on Wednesday.

Here are the crucial moments since Zuma's sentencing last week Tuesday, when he was found guilty for contempt of court for repeatedly failing to testify at a commission looking at grand corruption during his years as the president of South Africa.

Africans are something else.

This is someone that robbed your nation blind, and you didn't get anything from it, yet you're willing to lay down your life to defend him.

Pathetic

I agree with u. But it's an illiteracy and sense of marginalisation thing, not necessarily an African issue. Many are willing to die for Trump in the US or Eastern Europe - and they all have a similar profile as Zuma supporters (culture wars).

Trump's issue is tribal/racist (an "us vs them" issue)

It's obviously clear they're supporting him because of race, and because for some reason they feel marginalised.
They feel their country is being"taken over" by foreigners etc, so at least their justification is understandable.

Africa's own is different: it's just stupidity.

Not really. Trump's supporters also defend his corrupt practices like Russia elections meddling, his dodgy business dealings (refusing to release tax records), the treasonous actions of mobbing Capitol Hill or right wing groups that attacked Black Lives Matter protesters. They're fighting their own system. How is that different from Zuma (African) supporters?

South Africans also feel their country is being overrun by foreigners, you condemn that type of xenophobia but say Trump supporters are justified just because they're white? undecided undecided

All those things actually play into the reason I mentioned: racism etc.
Like I said before it's an "us vs them" thing.
The "other people" are the enemy, so in their minds it's justifiable.
There's no "other" in play in Africa, especially in Nigeria.
The same thing happens here also, which is why I said "Africa"

I don't think Zuma was ever xenophobic (I don't follow politics, so no idea if this is true or not), but even if he was, that's not the reason why they're defending him, is it?

Or are they defending him from the white "colonisers"?

Russian meddling and Trump corruption have nothing to do with racism. It's white Americans battling each other and the illiterate ones defending Trump to the death. Why else would they keep defending his treasonous actions days before he left office and are still calling for the assassination of leading white democrats like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.

My point is that this happens all over the world. Stop saying it's an African thing, it's self defeating.

As for xenophobia, Zuma is actually the most xenophobic of all the black SA presidents. Cyril Ramaphosa is actually very pro-African. But that's a discussion for another day.
