South Africa election ruling: Court says former President Zuma can run again


A court in South Africa has ruled former President, Jacob Zuma, can run in next month’s parliamentary elections.

He had challenged an earlier decision by the electoral commission, which barred him from standing due to a contempt of court conviction.
Zuma is representing a new political party after denouncing the governing African National…

  1. I can't believe the DA isn't the governing party in South Africa. It's the only hope. I love Mandela but the current ANC and Zuma are no Mandela!

  2. Zuma leader of the state capture, know is leading umkhoto wesizwe ,the Gubtas must come back and see the old man dance and celebrate their victory' of successful take South Africa to Dubai,

  3. Don't just interview ant-Zuma journalists who will use any platform to badmouth Zuma. Remember they came with +780 corruption charges and not even one of these has been prosecuted – let alone succefully! Are you even aware that Zuma was historically sentenced by Concourt without trial or even beingbe able to access his rights to plead guilty or innocent – or appeal after being sentenced? Did you know that a white certain rich Koos Bekker who refused appearing in that same Zondo Commision Circus but was just let alone! Why sentence Zuma and let Bekker go for exactly the same doing! Dont you see the dirty politics at play here? Anyways: we welcome Zuma with so much hope for the future! In
    so-called 'Zuma's 9 wasted years', we had SAA fliying all over the world, he stopped loadshedding only to be brought back after '9 wated years' administration. We had trains running smoothly, the rand exchange rate was just over R10, we bought fuel cheap. SOE were strongly standing in '9 wasted years' – strangly under a 'corrupt' presidnet. Don't listen to haters: ZUMA IS THE BEST FOR SOUTH AFRICA EVER!!!

  4. This is such poor journalism coming from our South African journalist. She sounds like a political party, not like a reporter. She reports propaganda and even that she is unprofessional in because it's so obvious 😂

  5. It's like we have South Africans that speaks for South Africans that don't behave like South Africans…or we have two types of South Africans.

  6. ZUMA is the architect of the downfall of the ANC, through his State capture architecture, people despised the ANC during his presidency, people denouncing ANC, resigning from the ANC during his presidency, either by default or intentionally, the ANC was never the respectable ANC we know, it became arrogant, leaders politicians instilling lawlessness in the country, we're dealing with the mess that started there, THIS is the culmination of the state capture agenda.
    ALUTA CONTINUEA

  7. Zuma; the old man who was released on a fraudulent Medical Parole card which claimed he was "Terminally ill" and to top it off; he later enjoyed a Presidential pardon from the billionaire and allegedly corrupt president Cyril Ramaphosa.

  8. My dear lady, you forgot to mention that Zuma is the only person in South Africa who was sentenced without a trial. A violation of our constitution, done by the Constitutional Court. A travesty of justice, that was the watershed moment in our country. A violation of the constitution by the highest court in the land.

  9. International court rules Switzerland violated human rights of women.. funny the only international court case al Jazeera and the CIA controlled news media report on is the Israeli case. Caught you

  10. Jz was sent to jail without a trial and he was ousted with a soft coup de dat using state missionary and CR17 to capture the sovereignty of South Africa using United States.however we getting there as South Africans but this journalist is also biased towards Zuma .

  11. The courts also ruled that he should never have been released from prison & needs to complete his sentence.
    His criminal rioting supporters are just a big of a disease to the country as Zuma is.

  12. Democracy is the will of the people, if people want Zuma then so be it. This people keep on telling us about state capture, when was state been uncaptured? Corruption is worse under Ramaphosa that he and his friend Pravin (Mr Connect the dots) sold SAA for R 51.00😢
