Trinity Martin: “He has done the country well by resigning. I hope the next elected president is going to meet the country’s needs and lead us as a president should.”
Njabulo Ndwandwe: “I am unhappy with Zuma’s resignation. There’s been a lot of talk about tribalism and I fear it will grow under the new leadership’s way of ruling.”
Jodine Beans: “It’s time he goes and spends time with his family in Nkandla and although we do not need him anymore, we’re going to need him to pay back the money.”
