check the most ridiculous quotes from your president Jacob Zuma

While oll JZ hasn’t always made that much sense in
some of his ramblings — think, ‘dogs aren’t for
africans’ –, we must admit it’s been ever so amusing.
Here are our favs.
When asked about the arms deal
“What is the problem?”
His views on Bob Mugabe
“…The people love him. So how can we condemn
him?”
The ANC vs the SA constitution
“The ANC is more important than the Constitution.”
“the Constitution is only there to regulate matters.”
One of our favs, when asked how long the ANC
will rule
“The ANC will rule South Africa until Jesus comes
back.”
His views on homosexuality
“Same sex marriage is a disgrace to the nation and to
God. When I was growing up, ‘ungqingili’ —
homosexuals in Zulu — could not stand in front of
me, I would knock him out.”
Global disaster, a true classic when asked about
HIV/Aids
“a shower would minimise the risk of contracting the
disease.”
When asked whether the arms deal could have
been corrupted
“It’s just a figment of the imagination.”
He also seems to believe SA is safer than it looks
“Our media, which is very open and report on really
everything, tend to exaggerate the crime issue…This
is why one gets the impression that we have much
more crime than other countries.”
Divine providence?
“God expects the ANC to rule this country because
we are the only organisation which was blessed by
pastors when it was formed. It is even blessed in
Heaven. That is why we will rule until Jesus comes
back. We should not allow anyone to govern our city
[Cape Town] when we are ruling the country.”
When asked whether people should be held
accountable for their actions
“No one person can be above the ANC. He can’t be.”
Apparently the ANC is a one way ticket to heaven
“Those who vote for the ANC will be blessed on earth
and heaven”
When asked whether ANC members should be in
charge of independent institutions
“…having a member who serves in the Government
and who also belongs to the structures of the party
does not retard this particular objective the
separation of party and state. It does not.”
Finally, when he was asked whether he is a crook
“Me? Well, I don’t know, I must go to a dictionary and
learn what a crook is. I’ve never been a crook.”
There you have it, el presidente serves as a stark
reminder of just how serious our current
leadership crisis is.
