Five interesting things we learned about Zuma on First Lady’s Instagram

One of Mzansi's First Ladies, Thobeka, is on Instagram, giving us a glimpse into the life of her husband, President Jacob Zuma.


  1. In between his hectic schedule, the president takes selfies and enjoys spending quality time with his wife and daughters.

2. Zuma is immensely supportive of Thobeka’s cancer foundation, attends functions with her and offers moral support.

 

Thank you Mr President for your undying support in my pursuit to respond and fight cancer. You have strongly and unequivocally supported the Tobeka Madiba Zuma Foundation since its inception. I honestly wouldn’t have been able to touch the many lives I do if it weren’t for you. For that I thank you Baba ❤️💐🇿🇦

3. The number one statesman wears pink. At a walk for cancer awareness, Zuma was kitted out in a pink T-shirt and accompanied Thobeka and their daughters on a walk.

Unpacking Risk Factors: Obesity There is evidence that weight management and physical activity may improve the quality of life, reduce the risk of getting cancer & cancer recurrence. The benefits of exercise/ physical activity for obese people and cancer survivors are becoming more apparent: improved cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, body composition and self-esteem, and reduced fatigue, anxiety and depression. Engaging your children in physical activity can be a great way to incorporate exercise into your daily life schedule. Eating a well-balanced diet with lean protein, including plant sources, such as lentils, beans, nuts, nut butters, whole grains, fruits, vegetables and healthy fats like avocado and olive oil, in amounts to maintain a healthy weight, along with exercise is the best thing you can do for optimal health. Let’s do this Mzansi💯🇿🇦

4. Zuma and one of his youngest daughters are close. Thobeka disclosed this on the social network, writing: “The depth of a father’s love shows in his daughter’s eyes.
What’s known is what’s shown from sunset to sunrise. A foundation built on more than just what is spoken. It’s commitments kept and promises that go unbroken.”

 

5. Zuma enjoys a game of soccer. While in France on an official visit, Zuma and Thobeka made time to catch a game between France and Portugal.
