President Jacob Zuma is set to marry his fifth wife. According to a relative the President will tie the knot with Thobeka Madiba next Monday.

Zuma’s other fiancĂ©, Gloria Bongi Ngema from Durban, had presented gifts (umbondo) to the Zuma family on Monday.

Umbondo is the last Zulu traditional ceremony before the wedding. It is not known when Zuma will tie the knot with Ngema.

Zuma married his third wife, Nompumelelo Ntuli-Zuma, two years ago during a traditional wedding at his Nkandla home.

The President was legally married to Kate Zuma who died in 2000 and Home Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma whom he divorced in 1998.

The Presidency has refused to comment on the upcoming wedding, saying it is a family affair.
