South africas top court has ruled at harlem and failed to hold president jacob zuma to account in the scandal over housing improvements which cost millions of dollars last year the court concluded zuma violated the constitution when he benefited improperly from state funding for his residence the opposition has renewed its calls for the president to be impeached and want a series of president ial scandals that have tarnished the reputation of the Ruling African National congress in two thousand and nine it was revealed almost five Million Dollars were being spent on upgrades to the property that were meant to improve security at the compound but the costs soared and two thousand and fourteen and dependent report found some of the upgrades included luxury add ons like a Swimming PoolVisitor Center and ordered to pay back some of that money last year the Constitutional Court found zuma breached the constitution by ignoring the reports findings so my apologize and promise promise to repay the money tanya page has the latest from johannesburg. The Constitutional Court south africas highest court has found that the National Assembly thats parliament failed to take appropriate action against president jacob zuma and relation to gross overspending of taxpayers dollars on his private home called income the Constitutional Court says the first thing that should happen is that the National Assembly needs to come up with a comprehensive list of rules and regulations which perhaps could lead to the impeachment of president zuma away but they didnt go so far as to say thats what should happen because that would be in breach of the separation of powers the opposition parties who brought this legal action were pleased with the outcome nonetheless the constitutional duty grant mr zuma in no time will be scrutinized would be brought before parliament to be accountable because his own Political Party has actually failed to hold you accountable and we can with the other day long we need to be in parliament in no less than it did to days before the state of the nation and as of twenty eight in their defense president zuma and the speaker of parliament both said it wasnt true that the National Assembly had done nothing multiple votes of no confidence in president zuma have been held and they have all been defeated and thats what it comes down to its a matter of numbers in parliament because impeaching a president is a parliamentary process so even when there are rules in place that could lead to impeaching a president ultimately that would require a two thirds majority and the reality is that the governing African NationalCongress Holds the majority and so it be extremely unlikely that the numbers would be able to be gathered for an impeachment spains Prime Minister has dismissed the idea that ouster can on president. Could rule from abroad. Made the announcement in this interview or speech the Spanish Government of fire put him on after he declared independence in october separatist parties want a majority in catalonia snap election this month but are yet to form a government whose the man is currently in selfimposed exile in brussels to avoid arrest.
