@MandisiNkomo I don't think it's unintentional. Zuma is smart, and the response was initially well co-ordinated. He's probably sitting in jail right now doing the clap
Told my fiancee about an amazing film on the rise of a new god in a post apocalyptic world that highlights the animalistic nature of humanity. Filled with love and betrayal.
