Former South African president Jacob Zuma's absence at the ANC disciplinary hearing leaves room for speculation on his potential expulsion.

Former South African president Jacob Zuma made headlines by missing the ANC disciplinary hearing, leaving his representative, Tony Yengeni, to attend alone. Zuma cited 'network problems' in Nkandla as the reason for his absence, sparking curiosity and concern within the ANC. The possibility of Zuma appealing the decision to expel him adds a twist to the ongoing saga, raising questions about his future within the party.

The ANC disciplinary process against Zuma faces delays and uncertainties as the hearing is postponed for further arguments. The tension between the ANC and the MK Party complicates the situation, emphasizing the significance of Zuma's case within the party's history. The anticipation around the decision intensifies, as Zuma could potentially become the first former ANC president to be expelled.

On a related note, the presence of Zuma's ally, Ace Magashule, in the proceedings adds a layer of complexity to the situation. The ANC's call for media cooperation in allowing the hearing to proceed highlights the importance of transparency and accountability within the party's disciplinary actions. The verdict from Zuma's hearing is eagerly awaited, promising to shape the future dynamics of the ANC.
