Economic Freedom Fighters' demand that Mr Jacob Zuma must be prevented from addressing that National Assembly
13 September 2016
Dear Speaker,
We write to you to demand that you must urgently prevent Mr. Jacob Zuma from answering questions in the National Assembly on the 13th of September 2013 because he has lost the Constitutional right and statue to respond to anything as a President of South Africa.
The EFF has on several occasions written to you to request that disciplinary proceedings should be instituted against Mr. Zuma because the Constitutional Court has unanimously ruled that in his defiance of the remedial actions of Public Protector, Mr. Zuma has failed to uphold, defend and respect the Constitution as the supreme law of the land.
The only correct interpretation of the Constitutional Court’s ruling on Mr. Zuma is that he has broken the oath of office and violated the Constitution. This therefore renders him personally and individually unsuitable to occupy the office of President of the Republic of South Africa. When he was sworn in as a President, Mr. Zuma vowed before the whole nation that he will uphold, defend and respect the Constitution. It is common cause that he has not done so.
