This after member of the ANC's National Executive Committee, Joel Netshitenzhe raised the issue of no confidence in Zuma at the party's NEC meeting, which is being held in Irene, this weekend. 

"President Zuma is not surviving. He is desperately trying to hold onto power. It slips very single day," she said.

Brown says Zuma will have a very hard time convincing the ANC to keep him on.

"Today for the first time - it's the actual proof of his involvement in divulging Cabinet information. This is in fact illegal. His son is placed in the centre of some of the allegations. The evidence is starting to become incontrovertible that it will be hard for the president's backers to make make a case for him in that meeting," she said.
