Jacob Zuma is still the man to watch, according to UDM leader Bantu Holomisa.

"People must not underestimate him; you underestimate him at your peril," he said during an interview on News24's elections podcast Q&A.

In December, Zuma said he was endorsing the uMkhonto weSizwe Party - a move that many believe will reduce the ANC's prospects in KZN and nationally.

Holomisa said the former president could take significant votes from the ANC in the Eastern Cape, Gauteng and Mpumalanga. 

"Zuma has a national footprint - I don't think he will only receive votes in KZN."

In the latest episode of News24's Q&A elections podcast, the seasoned politician discusses how his party will fair in May, coalitions, and the ANC's future.
