Senior leaders said Zuma himself did speak to the issue of stepping down. But some of the severe consequences of such an action were outlined.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>A senior leader who was briefed immediately after the top-six meeting said the consensus was that if Zuma were to step down it would be better to wait.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cThe agreement was that it was better to do so after the local government elections to avoid playing into the hands of the opposition. He would not do it now. They advised him. He offered [to go]; no one objected, except that it could not be done on a whim,\u201d said a senior leader.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>Instead of dwelling on the question of an immediate recall, it was decided that the top six would present a united front to the public before this week\u2019s special parliamentary caucus and the extended national working committee, which would include the entire national executive committee (NEC) of the ANC as well as leaders of the broader alliance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>The biggest stumbling block to a recall was the possibility of Parliament also facing a recall, the senior leader said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cPeople are talking about a recall, so who is going to participate in that recall? It is Parliament. But the ruling chastises the same Parliament. You cannot call for impeachment at this particular time. You cannot say [Zuma] has to be impeached and Parliament stays,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>A senior government official said \u201cno one will have the courage to challenge Zuma, because many people stand to lose\u201d. He added that there were few people in the top echelons of the ANC with the courage to take on Zuma.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>A leader said another obstacle was that the top six \u201chas no powers to recall Zuma\u201d. If he were to be removed by the structure, the decision would have to be ratified by the national working committee and then the NEC, which are all packed with Zuma supporters.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>Ahead of the ANC top-six meeting on Friday, leaders of the ANC Youth League, Women\u2019s League and its veterans\u2019 association declared confidence in Zuma\u2019s leadership and dared his opponents to bow to pressure from opposition parties.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cThe ANC must never allow itself to be put under pressure by the opposition parties,\u201d military veterans leader Kebby Maphatsoe told City Press, adding that \u201cthe court never said Zuma violated his oath of office\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cWe still have confidence in the leadership of the president of the ANC. They said Zuma must pay for the upgrades because he benefited. The court has made the Public Protector\u2019s powers clear and Zuma has never refused to pay. We think we should take it from there,\u201d said Maphatsoe.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>KwaZulu-Natal chairperson Sihle Zikalala said \u201cthere is nothing that really requires any panic\u201d and the \u201cconvening of urgent meetings\u201d, because the national office was equipped to deal with the matter.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>Youth league president Collen Maine said that, for them, the matter was closed. \u201cOnce he has paid, we do not see why, as the country, we should continue to pursue this. We must allow the executive to also move forward. The country cannot be governed through the courts. South Africa must move forward,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>Labour federation Cosatu general secretary Bheki Ntshalintshali said the ANC found itself in a difficult position.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cIf you are going to recall a sitting president who is a president of a political party, how are you going to manage the two centres of power? They have to debate all those issues. Even from the president himself \u2013 if he says he wants to step down, the question will have to be asked: what about the ANC president?\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>The federation\u2019s president, Sdumo Dlamini, said \u201cno sound political party can bow to the demands of the opposition\u201d, adding that \u201cyou can\u2019t have an ANC that says \u2018let\u2019s give the opposition what they want\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cEveryone is baying for Zuma\u2019s blood, expecting him to resign, but how do you resign without the structures of the ANC? This is not a matter for anyone, not even Zuma himself, but the structures. Those saying they are expecting him to announce his resignation are being unfair to him. You can\u2019t do that without the structures,\u201d said Dlamini.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>ANC Women\u2019s League secretary-general Meokgo Matuba said they would oppose Zuma\u2019s removal, as it would offer political gains to the opposition.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cThey are so vehement; they don\u2019t know deeper than that they want to influence the agenda, but there are processes in the ANC. To remove someone is not easy; it will depend on the outcome of what the structures say; we can\u2019t let the opposition dictate.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>On Friday, following the top-six meeting, ANC secretary-general Gwede Mantashe said calls by the opposition to have Zuma removed were meant to make \u201cthe ANC tear itself apart\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\u201cMy own view is that opposition parties are making the call knowingly; that it is a call for the ANC to tear itself apart,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>An alliance leader said that the ANC should be wary of repeating the same mistake it made when it recalled Thabo Mbeki in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan it afford to continue on that path? People forget that the EFF and Cope are products of ANC internal ructions. A sitting president was recalled by this party. All of this has happened in the space of 20 years,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>However, others in the ANC felt the matter was more serious.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>ANC veteran Siphiwe Nyanda said the ANC was part of the crafting of the Constitution.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cWe therefore have to live the Constitution. We therefore cannot be seen to be the ones who violate that Constitution.<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">\n<p>\u201cIt is the supreme law of land. Any president is entrusted with upholding that supreme law and any individual or MP has to do that. If we are found wanting, then it becomes a serious issue,\u201d he said, adding: \u201cIt is a constitutional matter and everyone who is in government and participates in any arm of the state has a duty to familiarise themselves with the Constitution and get the best legal advice\u2009&#8230;\u2009and not to be seen to be in violation of that Constitution through their actions.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"p\">On Monday, the ANC will hold its extended national working committee meeting, which is expected to be attended by alliance leaders and other members of the NEC. It is understood that \u201cthe purpose of the extended meeting is to lobby the members to go back to communities and explain to them that Zuma was misled\u201d, said an ANC insider.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Jacob Zuma and his backers have dared his detractors in the ANC: fire the president and face the consequences.
