The brother of former president Jacob Zuma says the 84-year-old is unwell and the family is praying for him.
Khaya Zuma says infighting at the MK Party has been leaving the former President stressed out, as well as keeping the family from spending time with him at home.
Heart FM’s Lungani Mnguni reports…
Jacob Zuma was reportedly rushed to the hospital late on Tuesday night, 6 October 2026 allegedly by ambulance.
However, the MKP denounced any emergency saying Zuma went to the hospital for a routine medical checkup.
With just 3 weeks to go the local government elections, the MK Party continues to maintain that he is healthy and in good spirits after a routine check-up.
