File photo.Jacob G Zuma Foundation spokesperson Mzwanele Manyi has thanked generous South Africans who have donated towards the legal costs of former president Jacob Zuma.
“I am not at liberty to give you the actual number because that would mean I would have encroached on the bank-client relationship. That account does not belong to the foundation, it belongs to [former] president Zuma. We take the information as it is related from time to time to say the number is growing,” said Manyi.
On Tuesday, Manyi said the foundation is cognizant of this fact, and claimed the contributions speak volumes about public sympathy for the former president.
