March and March to take its campaign to Gauteng legislature

Traffic is expected to be disrupted in the Johannesburg CBD when civic organisation March and March takes its campaign to the Gauteng legislature.

Traffic authorities and their SAPS counterparts are on standby. The march follows a day of protest action in Pretoria on Tuesday.

The group marched to the Union Buildings, where it handed a memorandum against illegal immigration to government officials.

JMPD spokesperson Xolani Fihla says, “Approximately 500 participants are expected to assemble at the corner of Prospect Road and Tudhope Avenue, Berea. The procession will move through the Johannesburg CBD via Nugget Street and Rahima Moosa (formerly known as Jeppe Street), heading towards Loveday Street and the Gauteng Provincial Legislature, where a memorandum is scheduled to be handed over in the afternoon. The purpose of the gathering is to highlight the impact of crimes allegedly attributed to foreign nationals and unauthorised religious leaders. We remind motorists to avoid the affected routes. Law officials and marshals in reflective gear will be on site to monitor the procession and manage the traffic flow.”
