WATCH: Some Zuma supporters at court to show solidarity despite postponement ZumaTrial JacobZuma
Pietermaritzburg - The last-hour announcement that, due to medical issues, former president Jacob Zuma would not be physically in Pietermaritzburg did not deter some of his supporters from coming to court.
Daliwonga, who has always attended Zuma’s court matters, said he stood by the former president as he believed that he was innocent until proven guilty, adding that in African communities, one did not forsake a fellow brother during difficult times. Another person who was spotted outside the court was Landile Vika, a leader of the ANC in East London and former councillor in the Buffalo City Metro.
“We have been standing with Msholozi since 2005 and we know that this case is politically motivated. As the chief has said, we are here to support Msholozi because we feel that his constitutional rights are being violated,” Vika said.
