Zuma will not be attending SONA - Foundation─── 18:00 Wed, 12 Feb 2020
The Jacob Zuma Foundation has confirmed that former President Jacob Zuma would not be attending the State of the Nation Address (Sona) on Thursday.
This comes after Parliament stated that it erroneously tweeted that Zuma would be attending.
There were questions after the tweet because earlier this month the former president's lawyers told the Pietermaritzburg High Court that he could not attend a pre-trial conference for his corruption case because he was sick.
Parliament said it regretted the error.
