Title: ID: De Lille: Speech by the Independent Democrats leader, in the debate on the vote of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma, Parliament


The ID is not taking this vote of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma lightly because his party elected him as President after a democratic election. 

However, he was not elected to do whatever he wants with impunity and to bring our country into disrepute.

Our Constitution says "the President must uphold and defend the Constitution as the supreme law of the Republic."

The public have been extremely patient, but they are tired of hearing your regular apologies.

We will no longer be misled by you smile and your fake apologies.

South Africa deserves a President that can uphold the dignity of this office and inspire and give us hope. 

There are many in the ANC who agree with us in private, but are too afraid to stand up for the Constitution. 

I thank you.
