Scuffles between rival groups over Zuma's future

Scuffles have broken out in South Africa's main city, Johannesburg, between supporters and opponents of President Jacob Zuma.
 
The protests come ahead of an emergency meeting of the governing African National Congress to discuss Mr Zuma's future. 

His critics are demanding he step down in favour of newly elected ANC leader Cyril Rampahosa ahead of Thursday's annual state of the nation address, but his allies insist that he remain in office until his term ends in next year's general election.

South Africa's influential Zulu King, Goodwill Zwelithini, has summoned the embattled President Jacob Zuma to a meeting later today.

The reason for the meeting is unclear, but it comes at a time when Mr Zuma is under intense pressure to resign.
