Johannesburg - Khulubuse Zuma claims allegations levelled against him by trade unions distort the findings a 2013 inquiry into the affairs of Pamodzi Gold.
"Zuma wishes to record that he has noted statements attributed to the Cosatu [Congress of SA Trade Unions] and NUM [National Union of Mineworkers] leadership, castigating him for taking steps to protect his rights and blaming him for the plight of the mineworkers who were employed by Pamodzi," his spokesperson Vuyo Mkhize said in a statement on Friday.
"These statements seek to distort the findings of the report that was filed by advocate WW [Wayne] Gibbs, the commissioner who was tasked by the Master of the North Gauteng High Court to conduct an inquiry into the affairs of Pamodzi, on 21 September 2013."
