KA-INVESTOR
As greatly anticipated Jacob Zuma (or Jay-Z as he is nick-named down south) has easily cruised to victory and is now poised to becoming the next president for Sub-Sahara’s strongest country - South Africa. Now we wait to prove the divergent and controversial sentiments the man has elicited across the continent and the world at large.
Despite his popularity in SA, the man is known by the outside world for all the wrong reasons. Unabashed polygamist, uneducated freedom fighter and a canny politician with a way around justice are some of the few (cruel) words used by TIME and The Economist to describe him. Some consider his presidency a big gamble for SA that may back fire.
Power has a way with revealing the inside persona (we saw it with our own kibs in 2003). So now we wait and see who the real Jacob Zuma is.
