Why Zuma will head to the recording studio soon

Former South African president will record ‘his trademark struggle songs’



JOHANNESBURG: Driven from office by scandal, former South African president Jacob Zuma plans to record music in 2019.

Zuma, who resigned in February, will in April record “his trademark struggle songs” from the fight against South African apartheid.

Thembinkosi Ngcobo, an official in the municipality, said Zuma will record tunes including one that demands the return of land, a song that resonates among many black South Africans demanding land reform.
