Johann Rupert Suggests that Zuma Step Down
While many might be thinking it, not so many are making public statements about it, however, Johann Rupert made the decision to publicly urge Zuma to step down from his role as president of South Africa.
Zuma had accused Rupert of scheming behind his back last year. He stated that the billionaire flew from London to South Africa while Rupert was fulfilling his role as chancellor at a graduation ceremony at the University of Stellenbosch. Rupert has warned that the country's finances will continue to dive under its current leadership, and has urged Zuma to resign.
It appears that Zuma would only step down if he did not find support within the ANC. He clearly has the full support of the ANC at this time, which means that the future regarding Zuma's presidency could go either way.
