The Sunday Times reports that Duduzane Zuma (28) is living a flash life.

The only assets registered under Duduzane's name include a 2005-model Citi Golf and a two-year old Harley-Davidson. But he has exclusive use of an exotic fleet of cars and a residence to match, the newspaper says.

He is living in a R4-million home in Saxonwold's Griswold Drive - owned by Mabengela Investments, a company sources claim was funded and "kick-started" with a cash injection from the Gupta brothers - Atul, Ajay and Rajesh.

The auto fleet includes:

  • A Ducati Streetfighter super-bike, which retails for between R190,000 and R235,000, plus
  • A R2-million Porsche 911 Turbo,
  • R500,000 Chrysler 300c, and
  • A state-of-the art roadster, a BRP Spyder 990, worth about R130,000.

There is a law not in the book of law that states: "If you are related to people in power then you not supposed to benefit from the goverment." Because even if you got the business in a right way, they'll always say its because of your father.

If it was just somebody else, there wouldn't have been a problem but because he is Zuma's son people just assume that he's got all these not from his hard work but because his dad is a South African President.

Maybe this young man is working hard and deserves everything that he has. Can't we just give him a break. Maybe it's about time we work hard and stop pointing fingures at hard workers.

@ Memme you are spot on. The guy is rich and its fine. Is he supposed to be poor. Is Zuma not supposed to take care of his son. Why are people not congratulating Buthelezi for neglating his son. They are happy about that and they wish Zuma would also neglate his family too.
Big ups to Duduzane, you THE man.

@memme. I would agree with you but if you can follow the history behind the Gupta family, you will notice that they are close friends of the President. When they came to South Africa they created friendship with Zuma and Zuma use to visit their family for lunches. Duduzane Zuma was trained as a manager by Sahara Technologies which is owned by the Gupta family. So there is indeed a close friendship betweem Zuma and the Gupta family. But i respect your view.

The problem i have as a member of the organisation is that we do not want to see another "Shabir Shaik" case where the president will be "corrupted"by business people. We do not want to see a president being controlled by business people.
