A proposed investigation into corruption allegations against former Deputy President Jacob Zuma has been rejected by union federation Cosatu. The union group has been a stauch supporter of Zuma, and believes that any investigation on its own will do little to resolve the country's underlying political problems. Cosatu also believes that allegations against Zuma were part of a plot by the former deputy president's political enemies.
