Dear Jacob

About the Book

Dear reader, The fact that Jacob Zuma is the twelfth president of ANC and Jacob had twelve sons makes me sigh because folks may lie but numbers don’t. Besides, Jacob’s successor was Joseph while Jacob Zuma’s brother is Joseph, now this offsets my axis. My reasons to conduct an audit on these signs of fate finds more evidence—could Jacob’s life be the pieces of the puzzle of Jacob Zuma’s that we’ve been looking for? What you see right now is the answer. Dear Jacob is a radical connection between these two Jacobs: the grandson of Abraham and the honorable president of the Republic of South Africa, Mr. Jacob G. Zuma. This is billion miles ahead of inspiration, a healthy root of the political expertise and leadership evolution. But here I focus on presenting Jacob as Jacob Zuma, human yet divine, dejected, rejected, and despised, but chosen. In this letter, the worst and the best moments of Jacob are prognostic to the life of Jacob Zuma, but negativity is to me a myth because positivity is my path. The story that brings nemesis to the enemies of positive reception is found from Genesis 25:19 and beyond in the King James Bible. I have cared for the meanings on the wall because words can start a war. Not only will you see Jacob Zuma different after reading this book, but you should be able to predict the next events that might occur as the clock of life moves toward the beginning.

About the Author

Sabelo was born in the mid ’80s in Vryheid Coronation. His first three years on planet Earth attested the purpose of God about his life because he lived to see Doctor’s every night. I have not seen someone young that sick and recovering. His recovery at the age of four gives birth to a poignant moment as Dad, Soweto Senior, passes away—the twilight came too early. In 1991 he started his education journey when he was registered in a preprimary school located in Cliffdale. There were a lot of Indians, but due to financial difficulties Mom faced, she had to take him to a cheaper public school. He started his second education phase in a primary called Thakazela. At this stage he was known for following the older and the wiser. They called him Mbanjwana because you could see his ribs; he was really thin. In 1998 he joined KwaNotshelwa High School for grade six, then it was standard six. The face of the earth seemed to take its attention toward him. He gained popularity after his love for Sisqo. We thought the boy had finalized a Kwaito deal in 2002, but he said the old him was dead, so he became a born-again Christian. It was just another occasion to see what could become of this, but the tables turned around. A few folks of his age and his former girlfriends (I hope Momma does not hear about this, but yes, ladies loved this lad) were also saved following his decision. In 2003 he started his tertiary education and furthered his studies to a bachelor’s degree in information systems, completing also the internal auditing training program and general internal auditing. I cannot say we have wasted funds for taking him to varsity, but I can assure you that the boy has a different calling. Auditing is a limitation of his talents. In 2010 and 2011, we thought greatness was leaving earth, but he survived the odds. He then published his first book, Just Teething for a New Thing, in 2012, and now? I am speechless. The boy is limitless. Let’s wait and see, but we will all read his biography if it should be published as a book in the years to come. Langelihle S. Mandlanzi (big brother)
