President Zuma Enjoys Win after Hospital Release

 

South Africa’s President Jacob Zuma was released from the hospital Sunday evening after what officials called a routine checkup. Officials said he suffered bout of exhaustion, and his party voiced their concerns to him, stating that the long election process had taken a toll on them as well as Zuma. The Minister in the Presidency, Jeff Radebe, added that Zuma will “continue to rest for a few days and will work mainly from home during the resting period (AFP, 6/9/2014).”

Zuma’s African National Congress (ANC) party won the May 7th elections by an overpowering 62% of the vote. Zuma was sworn in two weeks ago; this is the start of his second five-year term in office. This is the ANC’s fifth straight victory in elections since Nelson Mandela brought the former liberation movement to power in South Africa’s first democratic vote 20 years ago.
Zuma has faced a list of past legal challenges. He was acquitted of a rape charge in 2005, and was accused of racketeering and corruption after his advisor Schabir Shaik’s conviction for corruption and fraud. The charges against Zuma were dropped in 2009.
