Dozens of supporters of South Africa’s scandal-hit President Jacob Zuma are singing and dancing outside parliament in Cape Town, as the opposition pushes for a no confidence in him, the local News24 site reports.
“We love you Zuma,” they are chanting, in a clear sign that the president is trying to rally grassroots support to hold on to power despite widespread calls for him to step down.
An anti-corruption probe last week raised allegations of misconduct against Mr Zuma (see earlier post).
