#ZumaMustFall

                                                       #ZUMAMUSTFALL

 ZumaMustFall campaign stipulates how the country has finally come to an agreement that Jacob Zuma needs to step down as our president since our country is reaching a huge junk state because of his reckless decisions over the past years.Petition of ZumaMustFall campaign

Personally I think as a Public Relations Practitioner without the use of social media we would not know what is happening in our country and across the globe especially the issues of having the ZumaMustFall banners all over the country. Social media has become such an epidemic platform for most people to help keep in touch with the happenings of our daily lives and get to see the views of ordinary people.

 ABOUT THE ZUMAMUSTFALL BANNER
The ZumaMustFall banner went up in Kloof street. ZumaMustfall billboard in Kloof street central Cape Town ZumaMustFall banner in Cape Town central Cape Town. This huge banner has got people talking about which political party actually paid to get the billboard put up on the MacDonald building in central Cape Town. This is a way to show that people are more in to what their peers report on. As Public Relations Practitioners we normally use social media either to respond to post that have been trending either to report or set the record straight on certain issues the public would usually say about our campaigns we normally use Social Media platforms such as twitter and Facebook to generate information and get more sufficient information to the general public. We know that in 2016 more people are exposed to the likes of hashtags and tweeting back and giving their personal opinion or views on any matter. I personally think that social media has been a tremendous help in getting people all the information they need on the go below shows how social media has become such a positive impact on society it actually shows that anyone can be a journalist.

 Tweets from a person who uses social media to report back on how the ZumaMustFall banner was removed in central Cape Town when he arrived in Cape Town where the actual billboard was put up and replaced with the South African national flag question is does the anc have anything to do with having the billboard removed after it has already gone viral.

    Can you please explain to me the relationship President Jacob Zuma has with the Guptas because it was all over the newspapers that the Guptas were involved in the appointment of cabinet ministers?

    I totally agree Naledi but with due time Personally I think that removing Jacob Zuma will not be an easy job but eventually the country will be heard.

    A good leader is characterized by taking decisions that will benefit his people. Zuma failed to show this quality when he fired the finance minister, Nhlanhla Nene. His actions resulted in the birth of #ZumaMustFall campaign, therefore he has no one to blame but himself

    Not far from there is Khayelitsha a township where hundreds of people are starving, now some idiot has money to put up a banner saying Zuma must fall ? logic here?! thing is yes we have a messed up government, that we fortunatly or unfortunatly voted for but we cant expect the government to do everything, change should begin with each one of us.. lets stop pointing fingers while we do no better in improving our economy or least our communities

    the issues in our Government are so frustrating that the country can only state how they feel, what they think and that Zuma must fall but the trust of the matter is that the voices of the people are never heard and it does not look like they will be anytime soon.
