Statement on Dlamini Zuma’s alleged racist remarks

MP Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma

On behalf of Dr Dlamini Zuma, we would like to clarify reports on her alleged racist remarks.

Dr Dlamini Zuma did not say white people talk too much about Radical Economic Transformation and that white people have been stealing since they arrived in South Africa as reported.

Dr Dlamini Zuma was speaking in Zulu in the context of people in general  who oppose Radical Economic Transformation.

The consequences of this misunderstanding in translation is regrettable.
