WHO’S AFRAID OF POLYGAMY? EXPLORING THE BOUNDARIES OF FAMILY, EQUALITY AND CUSTOM IN SOUTH AFRICA

Abstract

ANC president Jacob Zuma married his fourth wife, Nompumelelo Ntuli, in a closely guarded, traditional Zulu ceremony in the rural village of Nkandla, in northern KwaZulu-Natal, yesterday. At his KwaNxamala homestead behind green security gates local police barred the media and daring wedding crashers while bodyguards monitored the premises as Zuma, 65-an unashamed traditionalist, appeased his ancestors. Inside, a handful of Zuma well-wishers, including SA Road link's chief executive Alan Reddy and businessman Abdul Rahim Malek, witnessed the traditional ceremony.
