South Africa’s ruling African National Congress (ANC) has formally asked President Jacob Zuma to resign for the sake of the country.
But despite the ANC’s top leadership deciding to recall him urgently, the scandal-hit Mr Zuma was still in power on Tuesday.
An official said he is expected to respond to the request on Wednesday.
Mr Zuma, who has been in power since 2009, has been dogged by corruption allegations.
But he has so far resisted increasing pressure to quit since December, when Cyril Ramaphosa replaced him as leader of the ANC.
Ace Magashule, the ANC’s secretary-general, told reporters the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) decided the removal should be treated with urgency.
