Without Zuma providing the inspiration, visual statements like this would not happen. Action elicits reaction in equal force. One of the basic laws of nature. 

The work in question is more a statement than an artwork per se, operating in the political arena rather than in the art world. It won't ever be hung in a gallery, or sold to an individual or museum, and will remain in the artists collection, a nice term for unsold work.

They don't play by the rules, why should anybody else?
