Former president Jacob Zuma left social media in stitches on Monday, following his first date with the state capture inquiry.
Zuma has been the centre of allegations of state capture and is expected to testify until Friday.
Former president Jacob Zuma appeared at the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture in Johannesburg on July 15 2019. While supporters, and detractors, gathered outside the venue, Zuma touched on several interesting topics.
Although he has been implicated directly by a number of key witnesses at the inquiry, he can choose to answer questions put to him, or openly defy a process he clearly regards as illegitimate.
Social media has been lit as South Africans respond to some of the things Zuma said. Many social media users had mixed reactions, while others simply laughed off the claims. Here is a snapshot of some of the top reactions:
#zuma is gulping down so much water perhaps with some luck he’ll overhydrate and develop severe hyponatraemia ... leads to mental confusion ... he may start babbling the truth ?????

Ngoako Ramathlodi was a spy, but ubaba made him minister of mineral resources and later minister of public administration...maybe the concept of "keep your friends close but your enemies closer"? #StateCaptureInquirypic.twitter.com/Sy83BKqkvg
When Adv Pistorius enters the ring he will ask Zuma to drop names of the spies, and the names of people who offered him R20m if he resigns, etc etc. Then my President could have bad memory in remembering those names. #StateCaptureInquiry#Zumapic.twitter.com/kDlxLxABNg
