Advocate Tembeka Ngcukaitobi has called on the Constitutional Court to treat the Electoral Commission’s (IEC) application regarding Jacob Zuma’s eligibility to participate in the upcoming elections with utmost urgency. Ngcukaitobi emphasized that the court must deliver a ruling on the matter before the elections, as any delay would render the IEC’s application moot.
According to Ngcukaitobi, the IEC’s interest in the matter would cease to exist once the elections are held, making it crucial for the court to prioritize this case. The advocate’s plea comes as the country inches closer to the highly anticipated polls, with Zuma’s participation remaining a contentious issue.
The nation waits with bated breath for the court’s decision, which could have far-reaching implications for South Africa’s political landscape.
