The Electoral Court has set aside the decision by the Electoral Commission of SA (IEC) to bar former president Jacob Zuma from contesting a parliamentary seat, paving the way for him to run for a seat in the National Assembly after the 2024 national and provincial elections next month. This is after the uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party appealed on Monday against the IEC’s decision to bar Zuma from being one of the party’s candidates to parliament after the general elections on May 29. To understand the significance of this decision we’re joined by Mr. Lindo Ntuli, Attorney at ENSafrica.

Political Analysis: Constitutional court rules Jacob Zuma cannot stand for parliament

Parts of Johannesburg will likely not have their waste collected due to an ongoing workers’ strike at Pikitup. This follows the ongoing protests by Pikitup non-permanent workers demanding permanent employment since their contracts are expiring. The waste pickers staged a march at various Pikitup depots, Randburg, Selby, Norwood, Marlboro and Diepsloot. Videos have been circulating on social media showing some of the workers spilling trash all over the streets in some parts of Johannesburg. Pikitup on Monday says it will engage casual workers until a solution is found as the “wildcat” strike continues. The entity's spokesperson Muzi Mkhwanazi said about 10 depots were affected and only two were operational after workers downed tools on Monday. Mr Muzi Mkhwanazi, Communication Manager at Pikitup, will joins us to talk about the ongoing strike.
