Would have been cheaper to try his ass and throw it in jail.

No thanks I dont want to try out Zuma's ass... Just throw him in jail and his new friends can try it out ;)

Hopefully its a public holiday... Although that would probably mean it will cost the country double... I'd love to know what the money will be spend on... Fireworks, Cows to slaughter, Bail money for all Zuma's friends so that they can attend...

I think 5 million is enough and thats pushing it...
 
And so the corruption and lavish mismanagement of all our hard earned tax money begins.
 
This is like the party that the ANC threw in JHB to celebrate their victory.
Yay!
A party for the few at the expense of the many.
 
Stop moaning, doesnt matter who the president would have been, be it Zuma, Mbeki or even Zille for that matter. I can assure, the inauguration would never have been a cheap affair. You host most of the presidents, their wives and crew from around the world in top class accommodation and see how much it costs...

More like 1000.

It makes me angry that (humans in general) are able to forget others who need help the most. R75 million could be used to treat people with AIDS, or feed hungry people on the streets. Instead of the US building 12000 nuclear weapons during the cold war, why not build 10000 and use the extra money to improve health systems. How many times do you want to destroy the world?

I think all governments need to realize (and possibly make this a guiding principle) that every cent counts. So the opportunity costs of every spending decision need to be carefully considered to determine whether the expense is necessary.

I'm saying sweet **** all... No actually....

R75 million Holy mary mother of god!!!!!

Disgraceful, absolutely disgusting. I hope the opposition throws a stink....

*mutter, mutter, grumble, grumble*

While a valid point.....
Why the hell invite them all? Let them watch it on CNN like the rest of us. I'd accept the R75 million, if there was no arms deal (R30 billion), no over excessive spending on electioneering (R200 million), no corruption charges (regardless of the outcome it still cost the tax payer money), no rape charges (this will have cost the country money, as the "Zuma prevention" of HIV will have cost the taxpayer somewhere down the line).

Additionally if you are going to invite these bigwigs let the ****ers stay at their respective embassies?
 
If I was the president I would put my foot down and say "screw the celebrations".. let's get to work dealing with crime and poverty.... and start by using the 75 million to pay the poor police and overworked civil servants a decent wage. Or as was said... buy some more houses.

Stupid sad waste of money if you ask me. If they want to celebrate, let them have a bring and braai.
