A sangoma was seen burning incense outside the Pietermaritzburg High Court in September 2008 while imploring the ancestors to save Zuma from his fraud and corruption charges which have been since been re-instated after being dropped almost 10 years ago.
Zuma was first recalled by the ANC’s national executive committee‚ before he was forced to resign‚ following the ANC’s parliamentary caucus decision to endorse a motion of no confidence in him.
The ANC in KwaZulu-Natal is also planning to host an event to welcome Zuma back home.
The party said it would be hosting welcome home celebrations for Zuma to thank him for “his 60 years of revolutionary service to the people of the country”.
Despite corruption charges hanging over his head‚ Zuma still enjoys wide support in his home province as his supporters are still aggrieved by his unceremonious departure from the presidency.
Zuma was slated, according to an electronic flyer distributed this week, to speak at a "Cde JG Zuma Speaks on Land" event hosted by the "Black Caucus" in Durban on Saturday.
