Jacob Zuma, the former president, is alive after a car accident. According to reports, he was on a campaign stop for the uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party, traveling from Nkandla to Eshowe in KwaZulu-Natal.
This occurs in the wake of the Electoral Commission’s announcement on Thursday that Zuma’s criminal record prevents him from running for office in Parliament.
He is one of the eight candidates who is not in favor. Zuma received a 15-month prison term for contempt of court related to his June 2021 appearance before the State Capture Commission. In the past, the MK Party had threatened to use violence if Zuma was not allowed to run for office.According to Mosotho Moepya, the Commission’s chair, they complied with the constitution.
“This commission has written to the objectors, candidates, and nominating parties to advise them of its determinations as required. Any objector, party, or candidate aggrieved by the decision of the commission may appeal the decisions with the Electoral Court by the 2nd of April 2024.” “The Commission could only act within the confines of the law and the constitution.”
