I refer to Natasha Marrian’s column (“Shivambu’s EFF exit paves way for others to join Zuma’s party”, August 16). There might be a far simpler explanation than hers.
Since the Zondo state capture commission has stimulated some action into prosecuting those embroiled in the VBS Mutual Bank scandal, which is likely to include Floyd Shivambu and Julius Malema, the former might think it’s safest to hide behind Jacob Zuma, who seems politically untouchable these days.
