Supporters prepare for Zuma's second high court appearance
Jacob Zuma's supporters say there's already growing support for the former president, as he prepares to head back to the Durban High Court for his corruption case.
The 'Hands off Zuma' movement says there will be a two-day campaign in the city ahead of Zuma's appearance on Friday.
The programme includes a motorcade through the CBD and a night vigil at Durban's Albert Park on Thursday.
A number of religious leaders held a media briefing yesterday to detail their plans for the campaign. Bishop Bheki Ngcobo, is with the National Interfaith Council of SA.
"There's nobody who is funding us. We are going to business people - knocking door by door - asking for funding. We are using our church resources like sound systems - liaise with our congregations about it. We will stand up tp say we are behind Jacob Zuma," he said.

Meanwhile MK Vets spokesperson, Carl Niehaus, says Zuma doesn't need a title to be considered a leader. He says Zuma, still inspires millions of people.
Niehaus believes the ANC should be throwing its weight behind Zuma.
Zuma faces 16 charges relating to more than 780 payments he allegedly received in connection with the controversial multi billion-rand arms deal.
