A distant relative of mine wrote a book The presidents Keepers recently in which he dealt in detail about the following:-
* How Zuma got paid a salary of R1 000 000 a month for 4 months after he became President of SA. The payer of the salary is a shady character with major government contracts obtained through shady methods based on his personal relationship with Zuma.
* Zuma for 5 years did not submit his tax returns and after the departure of key staff members were removed by the SA Revenue Service his tax problems were "fixed".
* How an operation by companies involving one of Zuma's sons is Director of a company involved started a program to flood the SA market with illegal cigarettes. No tax are paid and according to the Book the State Security Service and the Hawks are involved and coining a massive income from the said source, The operation has protection from the President office, The fixer in this case is a bloke called Agliotti - who in a taped meeting said he illegal trading has the blessing of Zuma and when on of he other attendees at the meeting questioned that one - Agliotti said they need noy worry because he is a Gangster like them.
* That the State Security Department pays millions to bogus agents - in the process individuals pocket the money,
There has been massive exposure of Government corruption over the past two years in -
* the State Capture report of the Public Protector;* the Report by the churches Unburdening Report on the scope of corruption;* A detailed report by Academics on the issue.* The book called the Republic of Gupta.
The reaction was that SAS alleged that the Publisher must retract the latest book or face prosecution - because the book contains information that contravenes Security-related legislation and the Distributor refused their request and said they can go on and act against them and the writer. The SA Revenue service also want it would take similar action as SSA. their case is weak though - using the laws covering the issues involved cannot be used to cover up corruption and illegal practices.
Zuma has gone ballistic too. He is being forced into appointing of a Commission of Inquiry into Sate capture, and he wants to pick the Judge himself and threaten people calling him corrupt with being investigated for corruption and for the Enquiry ne restricted and not cover any matters relating to him. Unless the Courts rejected his latest appeal to have the Judicial Commission be appointed in accordance of the Report of the Public Protector - and hopefully they do just tell him to bugger off,
How do you like to live in" Ganstaland"?
However, none was such a direct indication of Zuma's involvement in the crookery as the latest book has done.
