South Africa's former leader Jacob Zuma is impeding a crackdown on corruption by the ruling African National Congress (ANC) under President Cyril Ramaphosa, the head of the communist party said. The ANC has become increasingly divided since Zuma was ousted by Ramaphosa's faction in February. Blade Nzimande said the ANC had done much to tackle the "looting of public resources" rife under Zuma but allies of the former leader were trying to disrupt progress. The South African Communist Party is in an alliance with the ANC and the country's biggest union group. It’s not enough for him to say what I was taught by the ANC, I’ll never leave the ANC," Nzimande said.
