South Africa is getting ready for an election in late May.
The ruling ANC might not secure the usual majority vote. This could lead to a coalition government, a rare situation in 30 years.
The ANC, facing criticism over unemployment, inequality, and corruption, promises to tackle these issues.
The opposition parties, like the DA and EFF, offer different solutions, from economic liberalization to radical economic reforms. Jacob Zuma’s new party, MK, adds more uncertainty.
In this election, voters will not directly pick a president but will elect members of the National Assembly, who will then choose the president.
The voting system involves choosing parties and independent candidates. If no party gets a clear majority, coalition talks will determine the government.
