South Africa President, Jacob Zuma |
South African President,
Jacob Zuma, on Tuesday survived another no-confidence vote.
Media
report continues:
A
total of 384 parliamentarians voted; with less than half, 177, supporting the
vote of no confidence.
More
than half of the voters, 198, opposed the motion while nine lawmakers
abstained.
The
voting shows that the anti-Zuma coalition got some ANC votes but not enough to
get a majority to remove the president.
With today’s development,
Mr. Zuma has now survived eight no-confidence votes in his eight years in
office.
