ANC Northern Cape chairman John Block believes that walking with President Jacob Zuma is like walking with God, according to a report.

"[Zuma] you are the only candidate we have for the elections. We are already talking about the future [beyond May 7] because we are not walking this path alone, sihamba nomfundisi [we are walking with a priest]," he was quoted by The Star newspaper as saying.

"Xa uhamba nomfundisi kufana nokuthi uhamba noThixo [when you are walking with a priest, it is like you are walking with God]."

Block was speaking at the Jim Summers Hall in Kimberley on Wednesday where Zuma was visiting.

Zuma said a future without the ANC was inconceivable.

"Without the ANC, I don't know what South Africa would be like," he said."
