Answer:

Impeachment, no-confidence – the Democratic Alliance and other opposition political parties have tried them both several times in recent months, in their attempts to remove president Jacob Zuma from office.

On Tuesday, a fresh bid to impeach the president failed in Parliament, with the opposition defeated by 233 votes to 143, with no abstentions.

The motion to impeach Zuma was tabled following a Constitutional Court ruling which found that the president to violated upholding the constitution by failing to abide by the public protector’s remedial action on his private residence at Nkandla.

Before April’s impeachment attempt, however, the DA failed in March to push a vote of no confidence in the president – having tried the same route previously in 2015.
