Nkandla: Edward Zuma, who is the eldest son of former President Jacob Zuma, is calling on American citizens in South Africa to go back home and protect their democracy against US President Donald Trump on his decision to invade Venezuela. “I speak as a citizen of my country RSA as clearly the so-called leaders or politicians won’t because of hot potatoes in their mouths. What the USA president is doing is not something supported by the people and the administration of the USA is a very sickening act and should be treated as such. Trump is just doing all this for personal gains and he has mentioned it, by saying they want to extract oil to recover what they lost. As a citizen of South Africa I propose we ask all Americans in our country and tell them to go back home in defence of the democratically elected regime of Venezuela and the immediate retention of their beloved leader and his wife, with no condition, failing which South Africa if serious must cut all ties with the USA and issue a warrant of arrest on Trump and Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu,” he wrote.
