Analyst: Former President Zuma’s Reinstatement Good For SAF Democracy
A political analyst says Tuesday’s court ruling in favor of former South African President Jacob Zuma restores a certain degree of faith in the country’s judicial system. The court ruled that Zuma’s name should remain on the ballot for the May 29 general elections. Zuma wants to run on the ticket of the uMkhonto we Sizwe, or MK party. The Electoral Commission had disqualified Zuma for a prior conviction. Professor Sipho Seepe, a former deputy Vice Chancellor for Institutional Support at the University of Zululand, tells VOA’s James Butty, Zuma’s court victory also vindicates the notion of the will of the people in South African democracy
