IN DEFENCE OF THE MINISTER OF POLICE & the PRESIDENT on #NKANDLA

President Jacob Zuma will have to pay back precisely zero for Nkandla security upgrades according to the minister of police.

'A pool is a security feature… as is a chicken coop' - Twitterati respond to Nkandla findings.


In her report on Nkandla‚ Public Protector Thuli Madonsela found that Zuma had enjoyed undue benefits from 'non-security-related' upgrades and recommended that he pay back a reasonable portion of the costs which was estimated to run into tens of millions of rands.


That portion has been found to be precisely zero. This is despite the fact that the ANC's Gwede Mantashe had stated that the police who claimed the pool at Nkandla was a fire pool had lied and that it IS in fact a swimming pool, the Minister nevertheless now contends it is a fire pool and hence a security feature (along with the chicken coop)


IN DEFENCE OF THE MINISTER OF POLICE & the PRESIDENT on #NKANDLA  by Siegfried Walther

• Firstly, The President cannot be blamed for the fact that his Fire Pool mysteriously, and without any intervention on his part, turned into a swimming Pool. May I remind everyone that the President has a long association with Water and the Unexplained. I refer to the Shower which magically rendered his use of condoms to be unnecessary.
• Secondly, it is also not the President's fault that when his good friend Shaik - who was granted Parole on compassionate grounds because he was suffering from an incurable illness and was apparently knocking at death's door - took a dip in that same fire pool and  VIOLA, he was inexplicably cured!
•  And as for the fowl accusations regarding the luxury Chicken coops, I simply wish to point out that this constitutes a sensible provision for the day when his Chickens come home to roost.  How can that happen without a home for the chickens to return to?
• The Chicken Coop can also house Geese which are known to attack intruders. This will reduce the number of VIP police officers required at Inkandla which, you have to concede is a brilliant saving. Mr Shaik advises that this would even entitle the President to a special tax deduction as a re-coopment. Sorry Julius, not only will he not pay back the money but ....
• If this is how everyone over-reacts to a little misunderstanding, I shudder to think what they will say when the property is expanded slightly to make way for Nkandla International Airport.
• This is not an extravagance, since the President will need a place to land his new Presidential Boeing 777 which is in the pipeline . Also, the President wants to avoid another hullabaloo when his friends, the Gupta's pop over for tea so the Landing strip will also free-up the runways of other South African Military Airports for National Security which means NKANDLA INTERNATIONAL also qualifies as a security upgrade.
• Now that the truth is out, I hope the Public, and the Public Protector are feeling like right nincompoops for all the overreaction.
