Xinhua, April 6, 2016 Adjust font size:

The following are highlights of major South African media outlets on Wednesday.

-- Opposition parties put up a gallant fight in the National Assembly on Tuesday in a bid to have President Jacob Zuma removed from office.

Democratic Alliance leader Mmusi Maimane led the charge when he opened the debate, claiming corruption had infected the ruling ANC like a cancer.(City Press).

-- The ANC's overwhelming rejection of a motion to impeach President Jacob Zuma in Parliament on Tuesday after the Constitutional Court found he failed to uphold, defend and respect the constitution by failing to comply with the Public Protector's remedial action relating to the Nkandla security upgrades, came as no surprise. Expecting anything beyond this, would have been like expecting pigs to fly. (Mail & Guardian). Endit
