South Africa's Zuma Should Resign - Former Finance Minister

The former finance minister Pravin Gordhan has called on President Jacob Zuma to resign and "allow someone else to reset the course to fulfill the kind of aspirations that Nelson Mandela had for the country". Meanwhile, an affidavit by South African Communist Party's Solly Mapaila may reveal reasons for Gordhan and his deputy Mcebisi Jonas's axing in the cabinet reshuffle.
