President Zuma survives as ‘vote of no confidence’ fails

bySamuel Ogundipe
August 8, 2017
1 min read

South African President, Jacob Zuma, on Tuesday survived another no-confidence vote.

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.

Fulani herders are seen chatting as they gather at the N'gonga cattle market near Dosso, on June 22, 2019. - Higher temperatures, shifting winds and moisture levels that alter rainfall patterns, sandstorms, torrential rain -- all can change the quality or even the location of pasture on which migrating herders depend. This year, for the Fulani, has been relatively good. The herdsman were able to draw on stocks of animal feed to help them survive stress points, while timely rainfall on some areas of the migration trail helped tender young grass to grow. But whether this respite endures is the big question. (Photo by Marco LONGARI / AFP)
