The wheels of justice are starting to turn a bit faster in South Africa, with former president Jacob Zuma and Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema both in the spotlight in connection with court action.
In an unusual move, Lin Songtian, China’s ambassador to South Africa, has opened fire at US President Donald Trump through newspaper advertisements.

Looking at the JSE, it was a better day for medical scheme operator Discovery, which saw its share price perk up by more than 2%.
