Jacob Zuma has been accused of corruption - fired, accused of rape - acquitted, elected president, denied again, ousted, imprisoned for contempt of court - freed, freed, barred, barred from becoming an MP.
During the recent election campaign he has been doing his familiar dance and the results of last week’s vote show he still wields huge influence.
He is at the helm of a new party that took on the African National Congress ( ANC ), gaining 15% of the vote.
The results have been humiliating for the liberation movement Mr Zuma once led, as it has lost its outright parliamentary majority for the first time in 30 years .
Mr Zuma was jailed for 10 years at Robben Island prison along with Nelson Mandela .
After the ban against the ANC was lifted by the white government in 1990 , he returned from exile and rose through the party's ranks.
In 1999 he was appointed deputy president of the country and was fired by Thabo Mbeki .
He was then implicated in corruption allegations in 2005 , which he denied, involving a 1999 arms deal.
He then fought his way back to the top of the ANC and became president in 2009 .
