A visibly ashen Zuma explained to the crowd that his dark sunglasses were a necessity due to his ongoing treatment. He said those who wanted him to appear in court or anywhere else will have to wait until he is fit as his life is important and therefore he must seek healing.
Zuma dismissed the idea that he was afraid of appearing in court, saying he was neither afraid to appear on the long-standing charges of fraud and corruption linked to the 1990s arms deal nor afraid to go to jail if it so happens. Earlier in February, EFF leader, Julius Malema said while it was important for Zuma to faces charges brought against him, it would not make sense to send him to prison even though he was guilty, as he was too old for prison.
“Jail time for an old person like that is not suitable. What kind of society have we become to jail such old people?”
