Quick Glance: Court Ruling Favors Zuma Party
- The ANC's attempt to remove the breakaway uMkhonto we Sizwe Party from the ballot for the national and provincial elections on 29 May was rejected by the Electoral Court.
- Consequently, the party led by former ANC president Jacob Zuma will have the opportunity to participate in the elections, although it will encounter a separate legal challenge regarding the usage of the name MK at the Pietermaritzburg High Court on Wednesday.
- The verdict signifies a significant victory for the emerging party and its advocates, with a portion of supporters congregating at the court premises awaiting the pronouncement of the judgment.

rfi.fr/en/africa/20240329-former-south-african-president-zuma-barred-from-may-election
Quick Glance: Impact of Jacob Zuma's Election Exclusion on South Africa's Vote
- The exclusion of former President Jacob Zuma from the elections in May is heightening political tensions in South Africa as the country gears up for what is anticipated to be a fiercely competitive electoral battle.
- Zuma's opposition to the ANC challenges his previous party's dominance and might result in the ANC falling below the 50% vote mark for the first time.
- While this may dampen the MK's momentum, the 2021 protests indicate that barring him from the election could rally his loyal supporters.
- Following the announcement, the MK announced plans to challenge the decision. A potential court ruling in favor of Zuma's candidacy could revive his political prospects and present a significant obstacle to the ANC during a period of declining popularity.
