Duduzilile Zuma-Sambudla had Mzansi social media users in their feelings on Wednesday after she shared a heartwarming video dedicated to her father, Jacob Zuma.
The former president is incarcerated at the Estcourt Correctional Centre after he was slapped with a 15-month sentence by the Constitutional Court for contempt, following his failure to heed an instruction that he appear at the State Capture Inquiry.

"Wanting your father's release at the expense of other people. I agree that Jacob Zuma should be released but the way you are handling the situation is uncalled for."
@CaptainThomasS2 observed:
"South Africa new "Winnie Mandela". Yes, black folks, sisi is [and] has been fighting for inequalities since her "hero father" was the president."
@MrDenotion commented:
"150k people lost their jobs protesting for your daddy to get out of the cage. What have you got to say about that?"
@felixl87 added:
"The demise of South Africa is nigh. One day your nation is going to get what it wants; a failed state. Zuma was almost there. Keep on beating the drums."
Zuma-Sambudla applauds 'Uyajola 9/9' host Jub Jub
Briefly News reported previously that Zuma-Sambudla and the host of Uyajola 9/9, Jub Jub, seem to have morphed into birds of the same feather after a video showing the latter spewing controversial remarks made the rounds on social media.
Jub Jub goes on a heated tirade rubbishing the government, and in and among it all, chalks himself up. The rant divided views and, in the case of Zuma-Sambudla, drew praise.
The video was captioned:
"Respect to you @official_jubjub … No army was sent when 500 billion was looted."
