Johannesburg: South Africa's electoral officials said on Thursday that they had excluded former president Jacob Zuma from May elections, further stoking tensions in the run-up to the polls.
The country is to hold general elections on May 29 in what is expected to be the most competitive vote since the advent of democracy in 1994.
The governing African National Congress (ANC) is on the brink of dropping below 50 percent of the vote for the first time since it came to power at the end of apartheid.
The party is bleeding support amid a weak economy and allegations of corruption and mismanagement.
Zuma, 81, was forced out of office in 2018 under a cloud of corruption allegations but still wields political clout.
