Johannesburg - Black First Land First has declared victory after the Gauteng High Court did not entirely rule on whether the party should be deregistered and barred from participating in next week's general elections.
"The decision of the electoral commission to refuse condonation to the applicant and consequent dismissal of the appeal is reviewed and set aside." BLF leader Andile Mngxitama, who argued for his party during court proceedings, said the ruling was a victory for the BLF and another loss for the FF+ in its campaign against his party. He reiterated that his party was a black interest party.
