Marrying is probably like getting a tender to those ladies... The interest is not the project itself but the package it comes with it... YHA NEH!!!!

If all other people could think like you, we can surely save this country! For the record, I am not against polygamy - I am married to two lovely wives myself - but I am footing all the bill. They have no secretaries. Well, they do accompany me sometimes on a flight to Cape Town BUT I pay. Now, it is clear, if this man comes back after 2013, he certainly going to marry again!

Your comments sounds like you have a postgraduade degree, a Master's nogal. If not, not you studied legal subjects. I reread you entry at least three times and I did not find it wanting. Good comment Dzira. Yeah, you better say it again. "... the interest is not the project itself but the package it comes with it..." and to add to that "...the project is also not aware that the interest is not in it, it sheepishly believes it charming.... by even marrying the hasbeens."

With all these children and wives, does he really get enough time to address the socio-economic and political challenges of such a vast country? Does he have enough time to read and think of crucial reports, strategies, plans, ettc? I doubt!!!!

Mr President as much as u have so many wifes, i guess u will not have a problem if someone marries three of your daughters. How about that one?

Your comments guys always suprises me, lendoda umzulu oziqhenyayo ngesiko lakhe, ukuba uMongameli kuza kamuva akazalwanga ewuye. Ubevele enaye lomfazi eyingoduso yakhe ngesizulu ngakho ngenke umulahle ngokuthi uphethe izwe manje! Lendoda ewuZuma iyazi ukuthi uma kuphela ukuba uMongameli izobuyela emiva eNkandla iyophila impilo yayo, ngenke kushintshe ukuba uMsholozi umuntu ophansi okhuliswe ngesintu sakubo futhi asithandayo. Ngakho baTswanan baPedi naba Sushwana ndini abacabanga ukuthi bangcono kunathi, yini ningayihlomisi impi kesibone, eish nahluleka kudala, magwala ndini, nakhulela emathangeni onyoko! Nitshele uMalema athathe i-holiday aye e KZN e Durban, ngenke abuye, thina asinaso isikhathi sokudlala!!

At least Zuma is better than all these other man that are not true to themselves. They would rather keep mistresses than come out in the open and marry abomakhwapheni babo..

this pedi is payin her hard earned money in tax so that she could have better roads, better school facilities for her child not for zuma to marry every gold diggin girl/woman who refuse to work hard for herself and offsprings. being zulu doesn't entitle him to act uneducated or like a taxi driver. empi is for taxi drivers and people who can't spell their names or who think cow herding is a career.

@Jackie.Sibeko

U think you know too much about traditions, why don't u secure urself a position in government and head the traditional affairs. Here we are talking about the image of the country as a whole not your negative opinions. Like it or not, for our president to continuing maring so many wives as if he is bying his suits is all a disgrace to some of us. Would you like it if the outside countries labels him as a total poligamist. Remember at the end of the day all these activities hits back in the pockets of the inoccent taxpayers. U can defend ure tradition if you are a zulu through using that fancy inglishi of yours but it remains a fact.

Hhayi suka sizwile tjo,no wonder we have so many problems and he has no time for them just busy looking around for the next wife.No bursaries in colleges ,some of us are poor can't afford fees and millions are splashed on less important issues.Spending money on education of the youth can help minimise poverty,how will spending millions on president's multiple spouses help us? Women too have to settle for knowingly sharing a man just to get the riches,another Mswati we have here.*esho enyanyile mani *

why Zuma did not marry this wifes before he became a president of the country? This is getting to far now, I believe we should alart ourselves, rest assure that next year,he will gt married again. He is securing a future. Our taxes are misused by the goverment. This is nasty.. very nasty indeed.

A very stupid man indeed. How big is Zuma's brain size? Probably, as big as cockroach's brain. This man is too stupid to be our president.
