The move by the ANC to discipline its recalcitrant former president, Jacob Zuma, is futile and further fans the flames of victimhood he so relishes.
While it could point to a level of confidence by the governing party that the electoral threat Zuma poses may be dissipating, at least outside of KwaZulu-Natal, the ANC may also be seeking to sound a warning to members and other senior leaders who have a foot in other parties.
The ANC has summoned Zuma to a disciplinary hearing next Tuesday to answer charges linked to his formation of the Umkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party, indicating that the governing party is ready to expel him after months of dithering.
