Infuriated by the judiciary’s issuing of an arrest warrant for the former president, pro-Zuma forces lay the groundwork for a fightback campaignn a situation reminiscent of the 2005 revolt against the ANC leadership, supporters of former president Jacob Zuma are mobilising to stage a coordinated defence of him.
The warrant of arrest was issued after Zuma’s legal team produced a sick note, issued by a doctor at One Military Hospital in Pretoria, which Judge Dhaya Pillay deemed inadmissible.DECLARATION OF WAR Masechaba Motloung, a member of the MKMVA’s national executive committee, said: “We cannot allow for Msholozi [referring to Zuma], who is our president, to be served with a warrant and then have the ANC leadership just watching. Msholozi has fought for this country. We are not going to allow this, especially us members of MK.”
The collective believes that if it succeeds, it will be able to win more people over to its cause and engage the NGC at its next meeting in June, where ANC factions are expected to go head-to-head on various contentious issues.Like other prominent ANC figures, some of the Joburg-based members of the RET forces said they would do anything to ensure that their “president” did not end up behind bars.“Some of us have nothing to lose, and if it means we have to die, that is fine.
“We are going to support president Thabo Mbeki, we are going to support president Zuma and we are going to support president Ramaphosa whenever they are faced with unfairness from the judiciary,” she said.At least three sources who have recently had direct contact with the former president told City Press’ sister publication, Rapport, that he was so ill, he had already undergone two medical procedures – both of which took place in South African hospitals.
