This morning we brought you the story about 19-year-old Lindokuhle Dlamini, who claimed in a Facebook post that Jacob Zuma was her blesser.

Those claims were backed up with a few pictures, but you can read all of those details HERE so let’s move swiftly along.

The family of Zuma have now spoken out, with this below from Newsw24:

“That is my sister. What is wrong with my father kissing his daughter? There is nothing wrong with that photograph,” said President Jacob Zuma’s eldest son, Edward.

When asked if the young woman was a blood relation, Zuma was emphatic that the young woman was his “sister”.

Zuma said the Facebook account where the picture collage of Zuma and the young woman was published, was indeed a fake one, with a fake name and wrong age for the woman pictured on the photo.

We know that the EFF’s deputy president Floyd Shivambu was up in arms about the pictures, using the word ‘pervert’ during an attack on JZ, but son Edward was quick to fight back:

“The president got him kicked out of the SACP because he was misbehaving. He has a personal vendetta against the president.”

Zuma confirmed that the picture was real and that the young woman had every right to post pictures of her father.

“She can post pictures of her father, just like everybody else,” said Zuma.

So how many children does JZ actually have? Wikipedia seems unsure, saying ’20 – estimated’, but a TimesLive piece from March of this year puts the number at 22.

Apparently you can get to know them HERE.
