In March 2010, nine months after taking office, South African media reported that he had failed to do so. Opposition parties and the ANC's Tripartite Alliance partner COSATU urged Zuma to disclose his interests, and the opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) called for an investigation by the [[Public Protector]].<ref>{{cite news|date=8 March 2010|title=South Africa opposition call for probe into Jacob Zuma|work=BBC News|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8555697.stm|url-status=live|access-date=15 September 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100311213312/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8555697.stm|archive-date=11 March 2010}}</ref> ANC spokesperson Brian Sokutu explained that Zuma constituted a "special case" because of his "large family", which complicated the process.<ref name="Sunday Times-2010">{{cite web|date=9 March 2010|title=ANC distances itself from spokesman's statement on Zuma|url=http://www.timeslive.co.za/local/article346579.ece|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100312080436/http://www.timeslive.co.za/local/article346579.ece|archive-date=12 March 2010|access-date=15 September 2010|work=Sunday Times}}</ref> The ANC distanced itself from Sokutu's statement<ref name="Sunday Times-2010" /> and Zuma filed the disclosure later that week.<ref>{{cite web|date=2010-03-11|title=Zuma under fire after late declaration|url=http://www.iol.co.za/news/politics/zuma-under-fire-after-late-declaration-1.475953|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100821113237/http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?set_id=1|archive-date=21 August 2010|access-date=15 September 2010|website=Independent Online}}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
