"The Commission stories started by Madonsela and she was endorsed by our disgraced Courts. President Zuma was forced to appoint this useless Zondo. And I'm warning you comrade Mbaks don't make jokes with peoples president. Because president Zuma belongs to South African Citizens."

@uNdlov_ said:

"You're disappointing, President Jacob Zuma doesn't mind giving his side of the story but only if Zondo is not chairing the Commission because he feels he is not treated the same. You've never made so much noise when Brian Molefe & Koko was giving testimony. Siyanibuka nje."

@KingYandisa tweeted:

"Rest bhonyongo rest. You will still be a minister even if Cyril goes."
