Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla (born 20 May 1982) is a South African politician currently serving as a Member of the National Assembly of South Africa.
Zuma-Sambudla is the daughter of former President Jacob Zuma. Zuma-Sambudla is notable for her activity on the social media platform Twitter. She was accused by the Democratic Alliance (DA) and the African National Congress (ANC) of posting tweets that helped incite the 2021 South African unrest following the arrest of her father for contempt of court. A 2023 report by the United Kingdom-based Centre for Information Resilience alleged that Zuma-Sambudla was at the centre of a Russian backed twitter campaign to increase support for Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine in South Africa.
In 2023 she followed her father out of the African National Congress into the newly formed UMkhonto we Sizwe party. She ran in 18th place on its national list for the 2024 South African general election. She appeared next to her father on the campaign trail and serves in the inner core group of the party.
In July 2024, Zuma-Sambudla was elected to represent South Africa in the Pan-African Parliament.
