Johannesburg - Plenty has changed since former President Jacob Zuma was first charged with corruption in June 2005 and was asked to present himself before the Durban High Court.

When his court battle started, Zuma was defending himself on corruption charges.
That move began a two-year process of lobbying for Zuma to take over as ANC president and later country president.
