''Zuma must go'.
That's the message on the streets of the capital Pretoria, where thousands marched to demand that President Jacob Zuma step down after a string of corruption scandals and near record unemployment.
The protests came as the country's top anti-graft official prepares to release a report alleging influence peddling in the government.
Opposition parties, civic groups, unions.... joined by some 40 top company executives, all looking for new leadership.

But now, his opponents are hoping the report will prompt his departure.
