Can you predict the Zexit?

Patrick:
Just for fun, let's see who can call it. My guess is that it will be just after the constitutional court gives judgement on the Nkandla issue. Since we have no idea when that is, I'll just guess:

29 April 2016.

gcr:
My view is that he will be withdrawn after the municipal elections where the showing of the ANC will be a disaster and the NEC will dump the blame on him and save themselves some face.
I think the bigger problem to be faced by the Zuma saga, is not his withdrawal but who to put in his place - so far Mbete, Duarte, Squirrel and the double barreled Zuma are all in contention but there is no unanimous choice so this is their dilemma. The NEC meeting this weekend may give more pointers especially since our jovial (but brainless) sporting minister has also been targeted as a Gupta appointment by Juju

Fanus:
Prosecuting corrupt members of government might act as a deterrent but it's not actually fighting corruption (it only puts a stop to the instance that was uncovered).  Fighting corruption would be putting more overwatch in place so that this type of state capture cannot grow (it's real it must be stopped) and cannot happen in future (until they find another loophole in the overwatch).  We are still miles away from having proper watch dogs.

Hamster:
OK, I'll be the overly optimistic one and say within the next two weeks

Orca:
If Zuma does not leave office tonight then it may happen over the weekend. If he has not been suspended by Monday then the NEC will keep him if office to his term end in 2019.
The Guptas will be charged for their intention to corrupt.
