So Jacob Zuma was charged for corruption in 2005 and then for rape a year or two later. He was found not guilty in the rape case (Though all evidence seemed to show otherwise). And the originals arms scandle for fraud and corruption was dropped and then re-opened and is currently underway.
But now he has been elected as the president of the ruling party, and he has made himself very popular among the poor black community, which has caused him to have the backing of majority of the country. But the people that back him are over-all lunatics.
A few weeks ago there was a public quote made by one of the ANC (Ruling party) members, that he will kill for Jacob Zuma to become president. Which was echoed by plenty of other people. And these idiotic people who support him will fight anyone who opposes him. They have threatened judges too. Here is a quote from today : ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema has vowed to "eliminate any force" blocking Jacob Zuma's path to the presidency, saying that "Zuma will be president".
"COSATU has unveiled a detailed plan, which would include a two-day national strike, that it will implement if ANC president Jacob Zuma loses his court bid to have his corruption case dismissed next week."
They have ironically created Anarchy for a "democracy", by overtaking the justice system with threats of a violent revolution should Jacob Zuma go to court and be found guilty. And the fact that majority of the majority of high powers of the government and police force back him.
Around this topic there has also been some controversy over a very accurate description of the whole thing (This was released in one of the countries largest news papers)
Note : The shower on Jacob Zuma's head is mocking him for claiming while in court on the rape charge that he knew the person he was sleeping with had aids, and he took a shower to stop him from getting aids.
