Nompumelelo Ntuli Zuma is the former First Lady of South Africa, and is the second current wife in a polygamous marriage with Jacob Zuma, the former President of South Africa.[1]
Zuma’s fourth marriage and second current wife, Nompumelelo Ntuli (MaNtuli) is the mother to three of his children, before she married him in 2008 at a traditional ceremony which received plenty of media attention in the run-up to Zuma’s bid for the presidency. She has three children: Manqoba Kholwani, Sinqobile, Thandisiwe.
In 2015, it was alleged she was part of a plot to poison her husband, then-president Jacob Zuma. In result, she was banned from the Nkandla homestead.[2] She was detained by the State Security Agency, allegedly unlawfully, and was released later. Later investigations found no evidence of the poisoning or her role in it.[3] The exact circumstances of her detention are under investigation.[4]
