Title: Zuma is On His Way Out
Post by: Omollo on March 31, 2017, 02:03:16 PM
After his midnight reshuffle where he got rid of his opponents, I can't see how he will survive.

I think he is on his way out. I'll be surprised if he stays in to June. I even think May is too far.,

Seeing how bored the MPs look when Malema is making attacks on Zuma means Malema can't make much impact through parliament, courts. Typical African president is a powerful creature with endless covert/overt power, resources, brute force at their disposal.

Malema had more power and influence while youth leader under ANC. He has no say over there. This will be a pure ANC blood letting.

Zuma with the latest reshuffle has cleared indicated support for his wife to replace him. That in turn has alerted his foes. The factions against him outnumber those supporting him.

African leaders, except Mandela have never had a sense of urgency in trying to make their electorates life better. The saga continues.

Their bond-rating has been thrown into the same pool as other third worlders.  But Zuma hangs on.

South African President Jacob Zuma’s shock decision to fire his finance minister and stack his cabinet with loyalists led to an immediate downgrade of the nation’s credit rating by S&P Global Ratings to junk and spurred calls for him to resign.

The decision by S&P to remove South Africa’s investment-grade rating for the first time in 17 years may be followed by downgrades by Moody’s Investors Service and Fitch Ratings Ltd. It comes amid a chorus of criticism within Zuma’s African National Congress over his decision to fire Pravin Gordhan.

These people only care about themselves. The populace will be hit really hard. What great thing has ANC done to yuplift lifes of the ordinary guy. Unemployment is over 30%  and getting worse.
