Today could be a seminal day in the recent history of South Africa, and in particular a certain Jacob Zuma.

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) will announce whether or not they plan to reinstate the more than 780 charges against Zuma, which follows on from last month’s Spy Tape ruling,

Here’s eNCA:

Last month, the North Gauteng High Court ruled that the NPA’s April 2009 decision to drop charges against Zuma was irrational and must be reviewed.

The decision allowed Zuma to run for president.

Corruption charges, which amount to more than 780, relate to the Arms Deal of the late 1990s.

Last month, Zuma made public the Seriti Commission findings, which had found no evidence of corruption or fraud relating to the Arms Deal, despite damning international evidence to the contrary.

Friends in high places hey, it’s amazing what cronies will turn a blind eye to.

Let’s see what the NPA has in store for us now then…
