Tuesday's ruling by South Africa's Electoral Court overturned an earlier ruling that had prohibited former President Jacob Zuma from entering the polls and allowed him to run for office in the 2018 general election.

The move clears the way for Zuma to run for president on behalf of the newly formed uMkhonto weSizwe Party, or MK, which he joined last year after distancing himself from the African National Congress party, which he had previously led.
On May 29, South Africans will choose 400 representatives to the General Assembly of the nation. The country's president will be chosen by the members of the newly elected parliament one month from now.
