This is the first time since democracy that a former president has been sentenced to imprisonment.

The IFP, which welcomed the ruling, said it could easily have been avoided had Zuma simply complied and appeared before the commission.

ActionSA believes that further action should be taken against Zuma and called for his presidential benefits to be immediately revoked.
