Cape Town buffets should be on alert, those 2 could do some serious damage.

He is the dictator we have always wanted, what do you want him to do with his power?

We should take care not the conflate the matters of government with the matters of State. South Africa makes it confusing because we only have a single Head for our country. Foreign policy is very much the remit of State and domestic policy that of the government.
We have the same President and the same Foreign Policy and Defence establishment, even though it is a coalition government. I honestly don't expect any change, regardless of how the DA feels.

Well, you know what they say about the third time...

When he took over from Zuma it didn't count as a term. I'm too lazy to go digging now, but there's something in the constitution that explains what constitutes a term...

I must say, She looks more like his mother....and this gentlemen is why you have to send those wives to the gym.Must say, the interactions between Cyril and his wife are quite touching and she seems quite a demure lady, surrounded by lots of peacocks

All clear to serve a full second term, no Constitutional question it's laid out clearly.
(2) No person may hold office as President for more than two terms, but when a person is elected to fill a vacancy in the office of President, the period between that election and the next election of a President is not regarded as a term.

Seems to be like an oversight, because you can just do a run-around to keep the same President at all times, except in between first sitting and resignation.All clear to take serve a full second term, no Constitutional question it's laid out clearly.

Now lets see if he can be the first president to complete his second term.
Not with the way the ANC operates after their elective conferences, but then again no Zuma around this time.

I think its going to be a bit difficult for ANC to just make such decisions because for the first time they can feel the real threat of loosing power and also since this will be a GNU, other parties will exact some influence in decision making.

Hopefully it will be the first time we have a different ANC and State President.
Hypothetically, after the ANC conference, the ANC recalls him, but Parliament says no.
