South Africa: Zuma urged to radically transform economy

SOUTH AFRICAN President Jacob Zuma was urged yesterday to propel “radical economic transformation” ahead of his address to the nation last night.

“He must present a clear analysis of our structural problems as a nation, and the way forward,” it insisted.
