Zuma - the restless genie in a pot 
How militant is MK?
With elections past and with tumultuous days to come, Jacob Zuma has emerged as the political catalyst of our times. U Baba is the centre piece character who over time has brought things on, influenced our opinions, threatened the establishment, stolen from us and flagged the no-go areas. In more recent times he has carried with him a growing reputation as an exponent of the theatre of the absurd, not as a clown but as a power broker not interested in the rules. As a peddler of untruths, switched loyalties, magic firepools. disappearing bags of money, secretive meetings and more recently as a forever defendant in court cases, there are none so good as Zuma.
The wreckage he leaves behind is immense, so much so that some believe he has a team behind him with an interest in de-stabilization.
