Zuma's daughter makes a quiet exit from plush government job

President Jacob Zuma's daughter Thuthukile Zuma has quietly resigned from her post as chief of staff at the Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services.

The young Zuma, whose appointment sparked an outcry from citizens and opposition parties, resigned from her position in December.

Thuthukile notified the department of her intentions to leave in August, and it was accepted by minister Siyabonga Cwele.

She has been replaced by Frans Mthombeni.
