Daughter of South Africa’s former leader accused of luring men to fight for Russia

Durban, Dec 6 (UNI) Former South African President Jacob Zuma's eldest daughter has accused her half-sister of deceiving 17 men – half of whom are reportedly relatives – into fighting for Russia in Ukraine.
The controversy highlights the growing recruitment of Africans into Russian military forces due to a shortage of Russian recruits as well as the close ties between Moscow and veterans of the African National Congress. Zuma previously belonged to the political party, which originated as a liberation movement that fought for democratic rule in South Africa, reports CNN.
Zuma, 83, stepped down as president in 2018 in the wake of a series of corruption scandals and was expelled from the party he once led in 2024. He received military training in the Soviet union during apartheid, an institutionalized system of racial segregation that kept Blacks and Whites apart.
