Jacob Zuma has just been elected leader of the ANC, the ruling party in South Africa. The owner of JacobZuma.com must be smiling…

Update: Just read an article at BusinessDay - appears the JacobZuma.com domain is owned by Jacob Zuma :)

Further Update: Just looked at the whois for the JacobZuma.com domain and noticed the following:  Record created on 16-Apr-2007.

The Business Day article was written on the 4th July 2006, so it looks like the domain wasn’t renewed, and JacobZuma.com is now owned by Click Cons. Ltd:

Registrant:
Click Cons. Ltd (JACOBZUMA-COM-DOM)
Kings Court, Bay Street
P.O. Box N-3944
Nassau,
BS

The unanswered question is whether they have bought the domain on behalf of anyone…

    Will be interesting to see what happens to the domain now that Jacob Zuma has been elected.

    So how much did the value of Mbeki’s domain name fall?
