Jabu is a private person and has avoided the limelight. Roberta, on the other hand, is more social and shares a bit of her life with the public. She was born on September 18th, 1992, and is currently 31 years old.<\/p>\n<p>She is associated with her father&#8217;s company, Gijima Group, and works as the chief marketing officer. She is also a business strategist and public speaker and equally, has an interest in Agri &amp; Health Tech ventures. Furthermore, Matana Robert Gumede Junior&#8217;s immediate elder brother is Themba Gumede. He is active on social media but hardly reveals the career path he has chosen.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, Keni, Natana, and Matana are Robert Gumede Junior&#8217;s younger siblings. They are Portia Mkhize&#8217;s children with his father.

Though it is believed that he must have completed his tertiary studies as well, Matana has not yet disclosed whether he has graduated from the university. Also, in 2018, he said he was unemployed, but it&#8217;s uncertain if he now has a job and might probably be working at his father&#8217;s company like his older siblings.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"auto\"><strong>Matana Robert Gumede Junior&#8217;s Matric Gift of Over R2.8 Million<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In January 2019, Matana Robert Gumede Junior and his father caused a buzz on social media when Themba Gumede shared a video where his father <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeslive.co.za\/news\/south-africa\/2019-01-11-watch--billionaire-robert-gumede-rewards-son-with-porsche-for-passing-matric\/\">presented<\/a> his younger brother with a Porsche GT3 worth between R2.8 million to R3.3 million.

And some others advised parents to follow suit, though, based on what they could afford.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Robert Gumede Junior&#8217;s Family Bought a Private Jet for Their Father in 2013<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Robert&#8217;s father celebrated his 50th birthday in August 2013 and it coincided with the annual &#8220;Guma&#8221; family gathering.
