A rather unexpected course of events late Sunday night (13 December 2015), as Zuma “reconsiders” his decision to fire finance minister Nene, and reappoints Pravin Gordhan (who should never have been replaced last year in the first place with a presumably more pliable Nene) as finance minister.

The reappointment of Pravin Gordhan as the minister of finance, replacing David van Rooyen who was put in the seat four days ago, hasn’t stopped South Africans from expressing their outrage. A new hashtag #ZumaMustStillFall is trending on Twitter.
