'I am not scared of jail'

'I am not scared of jail' - Jacob Zuma

Johannesburg – An embattled President Jacob Zuma put on a brave face on Saturday at his first public appearance since the release of fresh evidence of alleged corruption at the top of the ANC government.

"I have spent a lot of time in jail. I am not scared of jail, I have been there," said Zuma, who under apartheid was jailed for 10 years on Robben Island with Nelson Mandela.

During a speech to hundreds of ANC supporters in Dumbe, Kwazulu-Natal, Zuma accused the opposition of "using the courts to scare the ANC".

"We are not going to be intimidated," he said.

On Wednesday, the office of the public protector released a report on Zuma that fuelled further calls, some from within the ANC, for the president to resign.

The investigations focused on accusations that Zuma had allowed the Guptas to have undue influence over government, including letting them choose some cabinet ministers.

The report prompted the opposition to schedule a no-confidence vote in Parliament on November 10. Zuma has survived two such votes already this year.

Zuma, 74, has weathered a series of major scandals since coming to power in 2009, but rapidly declining support for the ANC has threatened his presidency.

Municipal elections in August saw the ANC suffer its worst-ever poll performance.
