Once called the “father of the nation”, former president Jacob Zuma has been uncovered as the daddy of state capture in the latest report by chief justice Raymond Zondo’s commission.
The two, along with then minister of mineral resources Mosebenzi Zwane and former Eskom chief executive Brian Molefe, allegedly helped the Guptas buy Optimum coal mine using the power utility’s money
