It's game over for Zuma - experts
1 April 2016
Durban – President Jacob Zuma’s time is up, various experts said on Friday, following the Constitutional Court’s Nkandla judgment.
“This is checkmate. There is no way out for Zuma because there is no ambiguity in the judgement,” politics lecturer at the University of Cape Town Dr Zwelethu Jolobe said.
Three things should happen after the court found Zuma failed to uphold the Constitution – his impeachment, the dissolution of Parliament, and a fresh general election.
“What stood out for me is when Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng said both the president and Parliament have violated the Constitution. That is a serious indictment, because it means there was a serious dereliction of duty.”
