'Extraordinary submissions – the State Security Agency funded Jacob Zuma'
Sydney Mufamadi testified at the State Capture Inquiry on Monday.

The controversial former Chairperson of a high-level review panel into the State Security Agency accused then-President Jacob Zuma of violating the principle of the separation of powers by usurping the power of the legislature with a proclamation on intelligence.
Mufamadi’s panel found the intelligence agency had factions that mirrored divisions in the ANC.
He testified that the “intelligence community had been turned into a private resource to serve the political and personal interests of particular individuals.”
The Money Show’s Bruce Whitfield interviewed News24’s Karyn Maughan.
