The Zuma Years
For years, President Jacob Zuma has been dogged by allegations of deception, corruption, and nepotism. He insists he’s done nothing wrong and believes he still enjoys the support of all South Africans, but pressure is mounting on the ruling ANC to force Zuma to resign. After a tumultuous ride and as the wheels continue to come off, Carte Blanche tracks a near decade under the Zuma Presidency.

The State Legal Wars
From the review of the Public Protector’s State of Capture report, to the Constitutional Court ruling that the National Assembly failed to hold president Jacob Zuma to account – state institutions often have to appear before some of the country’s highest courts. At any given time, there are hundreds of ongoing cases against national, provincial and local departments – and in many cases the government keeps losing. Justified litigation, or a taxpayers’ burden?
Producer: Esté de Klerk and Marzanne van den Berg
