Zuma has been a controversial figure in recent years due to corruption charges, yet he is expected to become South Africa's next president, per the Los Angeles Times.
Twitter users in Johannesburg have been sharing their opinions on Zuma and the upcoming South Africa electons:
garymeyerza RT @jasdonwar: @ANC_Debate How can Zuma have integrity after his court battles? Does RSA and the ANC not need integrity? nikzaz @ANC_Debate Why Zuma, is there no other person more qualified with less stigmas' attached, surely there is another option? pauljacobson the opposition parties base their campaigns on our fear of a Zuma led govt. What else do they offer? baldaufji @MauriYambo Joburg is energetic, can-do. But big frustration from the urban poor. Disparity between rich/poor is HUGE. Enter Jacob Zuma. ifilose Vaguely terrified of the 90,000 strong Jacob Zuma rally tomorrow. Press accreditation organization woes do not bode well. Will Madiba show?
