NATIONAL NEWS - Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba says it's difficult to respond to claims against President Jacob Zuma, saying the facts need to be handed over to the authorities.
Gigaba was responding to questions around Zuma’s alleged failure to submit his tax returns during the first years of his presidency.
The claims are contained in a new book by investigative journalist Jacques Pauw who also says Zuma was paid R1 million per month for a year, without declaring it to the South African Revenue Service (Sars).
The Presidency has denied these allegations saying Zuma’s tax affairs are in order, while Sars says it cannot comment on any taxpayer’s affairs because it’s against the law.
