Thousands of protesters are marching in South Africa to demand President Jacob Zuma is sacked.
The latest protests are a reaction to him sacking two finance ministers last week, further damaging confidence in the economy.
This comes on top of claims of widespread corruption, recent student protests and a succession battle in the governing African National Congress.
